As the race to the polls heats up, Prime Minister Narendra Modi is all set to address a mega rally at the Brigade Parade Ground in Kolkata on Sunday - touted by BJP to be one of the biggest rallies that the state has witnessed to date. PM Modi's rally on Sunday will mark the end of BJP's highly-successful "Parivartan Yatra", which was helmed by several central leaders, drawing in massive crowds. Over 7 lakh supporters are expected to assemble for the huge rally while 1,500 CCTV cameras have been installed across the city. 

The Kolkata Police and security agencies from the Centre have been deployed everywhere. Four-layered barricades have been in front of the podium from where the Prime Minister will address the supporters. Vehicular movement, especially on goods vehicles, will be restricted, in busy stretches like Khidirpur, AJC Bose Road, Hastings, Cathedral Road, and Hospital Road
Entry for goods vehicles coming from outside in Kolkata will be restricted till 8 PM on Sunday. The Special Protection Group (SPG) officials, along with the Kolkata Police, will supervise the entire security mechanism.

PM Modi's last visit to the poll-bound state came on January 23 where he launched several key infrastructure projects and also attended the ‘Parakram Diwas’ celebrations at the Victoria Memorial to commemorate the 125th birth anniversary of Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose.

Elections are scheduled to be held in 8 phases in West Bengal starting from March 27 with the final round of voting taking place on April 29. The counting of votes in the state will take place on May 2.

Former TMC MP Mithun Chakraborty will join PM Modi on the stage during the mega rally at Brigade Parade Ground on Sunday, sources informed. BJP's Kailash Vijayvargiya met Mithun Chakraborty on Saturday in Kolkata for a late-night discussion. As per sources, Mithun Chakraborty is also expected to make a short speech at the event on Sunday. 

On February 16, Mohan Bhagwat held a 1-hour meeting at Mithun Chakraborty’s residence in Madh Island, rising speculations of the actor joining BJP. However, Chakraborty denied saying that he shares a deep and spiritual relationship with Bhagwat and that the meeting has nothing to do with politics.  Once considered close to the CPI(M), Chakraborty, 70, was a Rajya Sabha MP for the TMC for two years, before resigning expressing a desire to quit politics.
