It is a historical day for the BJP to organise such big meetings of the prime minister back-to-back,” he said. Roy asserted that no other party has shown the “courage” to hold two such meetings on the same day. Senior BJP leaders like Amit Shah, Nitin Gadkari and Rajnath Singh would also visit West Bengal for campaigning before the general elections next month.
