Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath too had come to campaign in the constituency.With rallies of Mamata planned for each day till the campaign ends, the Adhikari clan too has focussed its energy on ensuring that polling agents remain alert and that panna pramukhs bring out the voters on April 1.The Adhikaris have been working on a strategy to not let the last leg of campaigning sway the voters towards her.Sources in the BJP stated that the focus would remain on bringing voters to the polling stations while the candidates would be intensifying campaigning."It's all about that one day when polling happens. It is all that matters. So, if the Chief Minister campaigns and we do too, voters have largely made up their minds," said a senior BJP leader.Adhikari, a former TMC leader, joined the BJP ahead of Assembly polls.
