Prime Minister Narendra Modi will address a mega rally in Lucknow today. The rally has been billed as one of the biggest to be addressed by Mr Modi recently. Union ministers and MPs representing Uttar Pradesh at Centre have already reached Lucknow to take part in the rally. <br/><br/>BJP President Amit Shah is expected to share the dais with the Prime Minister. Apart from Mr Shah, senior BJP leaders Rajnath Singh, Kalraj Mishra and Uma Bharti will attend the rally. People from every nook and corner of the state including Awadh, Kanpur and Brij regions have already started arriving in Lucknow despite the winter chill. Party spokesman Chandra Mohan said, today's rally will break the record of all the previous political rallies in Lucknow. He said, it will set the tone for change in Uttar Pradesh. <br/><br/>The rally is seen as a culmination of the four Parivartan yatras carried out by the BJP in the state recently. It will be the first rally by Mr Modi after the expiry of 50-day grace period of demonetisation on December 30. The Prime Minister in a televised address to the nation on New Year's Eve announced several measures for the rural and urban poor, small businesses, farmers and senior citizens. The choice of the venue – Lucknow is also significant as it has been a stronghold of the ruling Samajwadi Party, which is embroiled in its worst internal power struggle.<br/>
