He is scheduled to address the public in Bongaon Constituency in North 24 Paraganas district, Arambagh and Hooghly Constituencies in Hooghly district, and the Howrah Parliamentary constituency.

Shah's visit to the state comes just two days after Prime Minister Narendra Modi held rallies amidst reports of violence during the fourth phase of elections.

While addressing a rally in Hooghly, Modi had turned the heat on Mamata, attacking her over her 'Prime Ministerial ambitions'.

The TMC though, complained to the Election Commission over another comment by Modi - when he said he was in contact with over 40 TMC legislators. The party said Modi was indulging in 'horse trading'.

Eight parliamentary constituencies in West Bengal, went to polls in the fourth phase of Lok Sabha polls on April 29 - amid reports of violence.

TMC and BJP hit out at each other over the violence, blaming party-backed 'goons'.
