BJP president Amit Shah will kick off party's campaign on Wednesday for the November 28 assembly elections in Mizoram.

Shah will address BJP's statewide booth level workers' meet at R. Dengthuama Indoor Stadium in Aizawl where he would kick off the party campaign for the upcoming election to the 40-member Mizoram legislative assembly, state BJP unit president John V. Hluna told PTI Tuesday.

Shah will induct Buddha Dhan Chakma, a ruling Congress legislator who resigned from the state assembly on Tuesday, in the meeting in the presence of BJP election in charge of Mizoram Himanta Biswas (finance minister of Assam), Nagaland Deputy Chief Minister Y. Patton and other leaders on Wednesday.

Shah will also inaugurate the BJP office in Aizawl before the meeting, Hluna said.

Mizoram is slated to go to polls on November 28.

Mizoram is the only state in the entire northeast where the Congress is in power at present. The BJP leaders have been asserting that they would make all efforts to remove it from the power from the state to paint the whole northeastern states with the saffron colour.
