Ahead of Lok Sabha poll results, Prime Minister Narendra Modi is expected to visit Kanniyakumari in Tamil Nadu on May 30.The Lok Sabha poll results will be declared on June 4.
He is expected to stay there for two days and meditate at Vivekananda Rock Memorial Hall on May 31. He is expected to leave Kanniyakumari on June 1.
“If the Prime Minister decides to meditate on June 1 also, he will be at Vivekananda Rock Memorial for the second day also before leaving Kanniyakumari,” police sources told The Hindu.
The PM had offered prayers at the Kedarnath shrine in Uttarakhand days before the counting for the Lok Sabha elections 2019.
PM Modi meditated at a cave 11,700 feet up in the Himalayas. He spent the night at the now-famous Rudra meditation cave which is a little over a kilometre’s trek from Kedarnath.
According to Indian Express, the Rudraprayag District Magistrate said that the cave had electricity, a heater, a simple bed, mattress, a small bathing area, an attached toilet, an electric geyser for hot water and a telephone.
The BJP, along with its National Democratic Alliance (NDA) partners, is eyeing more than 400 seats out of the 543-member Lok Sabha. Achieving this goal would mark the party's third consecutive single-party majority and secure PM Modi's third term.
"Our strategy for the entire nation is the same. Phir ek baar modi sarkar. Aur chaar June 400 paar," Modi said in an interview to PTI Videos. "Look at 2019 elections. The largest party even then in the south was BJP. Again, I say this: the largest party in the south this time will be BJP, and its allies will add more (seats) to it."
