Gujarat goes to the polls later this year, and PM Modi is visiting the state at least twice every month.
Attempting to dislodge Congress as the main opposition in the state and challenge the BJP's stronghold, the Aam Aadmi Party has also intensified its campaigning in the state. AAP chief and Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has visited the state five times in under a month. He is currently on a two-day visit to the state addressing gatherings along with his deputy Manish Sisodia.
