JAIPUR: In his first visit to the Indo-Pak border in Rajasthan and his second landing at an IAF base after Adampur in Punjab, following India’s attack on terror launch pads in Pakistan and POK on May 7, PM Narendra Modi will visit Deshnok town in Bikaner district where he will offer prayers at Karni Mata temple and address a rally on May 22.
Nal airport in Bikaner, which also functions as an IAF station and was a target during the latest conflict, will serve as the PM’s landing site. Bikaner shares a 168-km-long border with Pakistan, while Deshnok is located nearly 200km from the international boundary.
Sources said Modi might meet soldiers deployed along the international border, in a gesture of solidarity following Operation Sindoor.
Union minister Arjun Ram Meghwal and BJP Rajasthan state president Madan Rathore, along with some state ministers, will reach Bikaner Saturday to oversee preparations.
BJP spokesperson Laxmikant Bhardwaj told TOI Modi will be accompanied by Union railways minister Ashwini Vaishnaw, Rajasthan CM Bhajan Lal Sharma and Meghwal.
