Amit Shah aims to win more than 35 Lok Sabha seats from the state. In 2019 Lok Sabha elections, the BJP won 18 out of 42 parliamentary constituencies. Sources within the BJP revealed that Shah will arrive at the city airport on Wednesday afternoon, travel to Maidan in a helicopter, and then proceed to the rally venue in a motorcade.
