Prime Minister Narendra Modi, speaking at an election rally in Bijnor district of Uttar Pradesh, said that loans of small farmers will be waived off if the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) comes to power in the state. Targeting the Samajwadi Party-Congress alliance, he said that the 11 March result will expose the two.



Bijnor goes to polls on 15 February, during the second round of polling. First two stages cover areas in the state where farmer loans have come to be an important electoral issue.


The Prime Minister will also address an election rally in Haridwar district of Uttarakhand, where he is expected to target the ruling Congress party on lack of development and may respond to the criticism that his comment on former prime minister Manmohan Singh has drawn.
