BJP to charge Rs 10 from its workers to attend Modis rally

The BJP plans to charge Rs 10 from party workers who want to attend the proposed rally of Narendra Modi here next month. There is a thinking in the party to charge Rs 10 and this decision is almost final, a senior party functionary said on Sunday. The Gujarat CM,who is also the BJPs prime ministerial candidate,is slated to address the public meeting in the second half of next month,which the partys state unit hopes would kick-start preparations for next years general elections. Senior leader M Venkaiah Naidu is the rally incharge,and the party is scouting for a suitable location for the rally which it expects would attract a five-lakh strong crowd. For Modis programme in Hyderabad earlier this year tickets were sold to the public for Rs 5,and the party would charge a similar amount for party workers for his September 25 rally in Bhopal.
