HYDERABAD: Prime Minister Narendra Modi and a dozen top leaders, including Union home minister Amit Shah, will be campaigning for BJP candidates in the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation elections.
The star turnout will begin on Wednesday with Union minister for women and child development Smriti Irani campaigning and releasing the party manifesto. “The national party leaders’ campaign schedule has not been finalised yet. But we have received confirmation of their visit,” N Ramchander Rao, MLC and city unit former president, told TOI. Party national president JP Nadda, UP chief minister Yogi Adityanath and former Maharashtra CM Devendra Fadnavis are expected to land in Hyderabad to canvass for party candidates.
“By sending top leaders here, the party wants to send a strong message to voters that BJP is here to stay, and also compare PM Modi’s administration and CM K Chandrasekhar Rao’s governance,” a party functionary said.
