"Looking forward to addressing a rally in Jagdalpur. BJP has assiduously served the people of Chhattisgarh for the last 15 years and I am sure the people will again bless our Party in the coming polls. @BJP4CGState," Modi tweeted.

The second phase of polling in the state will be held on Nov 20.

Meanwhile, Rahul Gandhi will also start his two-day Chhattisgarh tour from Friday.
