Pavan to campaign for BJP in Karnataka BANGALORE: With just two weeks remaining for the April 17 Lok Sabha elections in the state, the BJP is preparing for a decisive blitzkrieg by ramping up its campaigning.
The electorate of Karnataka will see almost the entire galaxy of BJP star campaigners, including party national president Rajnath Singh, senior leader Sushma Swaraj, Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivaraj Singh Chouhan, Rajasthan Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje and possibly even L K Advani.
The party also succeeded in convincing Tollywood superstar Pavan Kalyan to campaign for party candidates in constituencies which have a high concentration of Telugu-speaking people.
BJP candidate from Chikballapur B N Bachche Gowda, who is locked in a no-holds barred fight against Union Minister Veerappa Moily of the Congress and H D Kumaraswamy of the JD(S), said Pavan Kalyan would address a rally in Chikballapur soon.
According to party sources, Modi is likely to visit the state on April 8 to address rallies in Mysore and Bangalore. It should not be a surprise if BJP succeeds in getting Pavan Kalyan to address a rally in Bellary too.
