In order to keep security tight near Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport, Mumbai has been put on red alert. The reason behind that is Lok Sabha elections and Prime Minister Narendra Modi who will be arriving today in Mumbai.
According to the Maharashtra Times, people can’t gather in groups in the area. This is not it. The police will carry out checking of baggage at the airport and in its vicinity. With just three days to go for the campaigning to end for the fourth and final phase of the Lok Sabha polls in Maharashtra, Prime Minister Narendra Modi will address a rally at Bandra-Kurla Complex (BKC) in Mumbai on Friday evening.
More than 3.11 crore voters spread across these seats located in North Maharashtra, Mumbai, Thane, Palghar and parts of Western Maharashtra, are eligible to cast their vote. The constituencies voting on April 29 are Nandurbar, Dhule, Dindori, Nashik (North Maharashtra), Palghar, Bhiwandi, Kalyan, Thane (located on Mumbai’s outskirts), Mumbai North, Mumbai North-West, Mumbai North-Central, Mumbai North-East, Mumbai South and Mumbai South-Central, Maval and Shirur (Pune district) and Shirdi (Ahmednagar district).
