Prime Minister Narendra Modi will be on a two-day tour of Eastern UP and will launch developmental projects in Azamgarh, Mirzapur and his parliamentary constituency Varanasi.
In Azamgarh, PM Modi will lay the foundation stone of 340 kms long Purvanchal expressway, the constituency represented by Samajwadi Party founder Mulayam Singh Yadav.
UP Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, Deputy CM Keshav Prasad Maurya, State BJP chief Mahendra Nath Pandey and other prominent party leaders will also attend the event.
However, the Samajwadi Party workers staged a protest outside the district collectorate on Thursday accusing BJP of relaunching the expressway project which was already flagged off by Akhilesh Yadav during his government in December 2016.
Akhilesh is also addressing a press conference at Samajwadi Party headquarters in Lucknow on Saturday morning and is expected to launch a scathing attack on the BJP.
The six lane expressway from Lucknow to Ghazipur will be constructed at a cost of Rs 23,000 crores.
