PM Modi’s high-level meeting with MP party leaders in the spotlight

Bhopal: Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s visit to Bhopal has grabbed significant political attention, as he is set to engage in more than two hours of discussions with key party figures, members of Parliament, and state Assembly legislators on Sunday.

According to party officials, the Prime Minister will confer with senior leaders over dinner at the Kushabhau Thakre Convention Center in Bhopal on Sunday.

Although party insiders have remained tight-lipped on the specifics of the agenda, this occasion marks the first time Prime Minister Modi will stay in the state overnight and engage in extended discussions with party leaders.

He will spend the night of February 23 at Raj Bhavan (Governor’s House), and on February 24, he will inaugurate the eighth edition of the Global Investors’ Summit 2025.
