PM to Arrive in Karnataka  

In back-to-back campaign for the Lok Sabha elections, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday will arrive in Karnataka to address a public meeting in Kalaburagi which is expected to send a strong message of support to scheduled castes and Lingayats, who have been a steadfast supporters of the BJP in the previous elections. 

Notably, Kalaburagi is the home district of the Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge, who will not contest from the seat this time. Despite that, the Prime Minister wants to send a clear message by taking on the opposition bloc from Kharge's home turf. 

Prime Minister Modi in Kalaburagi is likely to come down heavy on Kharge and his party's commitment to the backward classes.
