President Pranab Mukherjee has cut short a two-day visit to Patna, and will now be in the Bihar capital only on Oct 26 because it was clashing with a rally of BJP's Prime Ministerial candidate Narendra Modi in Patna. He was earlier scheduled to be in Bihar Oct 27 as well, the day when Bharatiya Janata Party's prime minister Candidate Narendra Modi addresses a rally.
BJP spokesperson Shahnawaz Hussain and vice president Rajiv Pratap Rudy met the President to persuade him to revise the date of his visit to the state. Shahnawaz Hussain said that It was a courtesy call since he is coming to Bihar and our rally is on the 27th (Oct 27). The President has now cancelled his night halt and will return to the national capital on the same day (Oct 26). Modi will address the BJP's Hunkar rally in Patna on October 27. The clash between the President's visit and Modi's rally had become an issue between BJP and its former ally JD (U).
Rajiv Pratap Rudy said that he felt concerned that the earlier scheduled Hunkar rally of Narendra Modi in Patna on October 27 may cause inconvenience to the President. The President informed us that he will be in Patna on October 26 only for two hours. Venu Rajamony said that the president will give a lecture at IIT Patna Oct 26. After the function, he will come back the same day. He was invited for a function Oct 27, but that was postponed a long time back.
