Besides, Sadhvi Niranjan Jyothi is campaigning for the party reaching out to different sections among the backward and weaker sections in the city and Union Minister Smriti Irani took part in the campaign on Wednesday, he said.

Laxman said that the party national leaders have agreed to take part in the campaign in the GHMC elections at the request of the State BJP, the reason being, the TRS government had recently brought an amendment to the municipal act, making no distinction between the party and the government. Also, it was literally taking control of the State Election Commission (SEC) and making it a mere spectator in the process of conducting the GHMC elections. In turn, the government machinery was being misused to its advantage for winning the elections, besides, using the money power. Against this backdrop, the national leaders would be participating in the GHMC election campaign to reach out to different sections of people in the GHMC to further consolidate the growing strength and support of the BJP among the people.
