The BJP’s Prime Ministerial candidate Narendra Modi would file his nomination papers for the Varanasi Lok Sabha seat on April 24, his close aide Amit Shah said today.
Modi would file his nomination on April 24 after which “the BJP wave would turn into a tsunami,” Shah told presspersons here.
Varanasi goes to polls in the final phase on May 12.
The Gujarat Chief Minister is contesting from two seats. He had already filed his nomination for the Vadodra seat in Gujarat on April 9.
In Varanasi, 63-year-old Modi is pitted against AAP leader and former Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal, Ajay Rai of the Congress and Kailash Chaurasia of the Samajwadi Party.
Rai is the sitting MLA from the Kolasla seat.
