Lucknow, Jan. 10 -- The Samajwadi Party (SP) is relying on its senior leaders from Uttar Pradesh to campaign for the party candidates in Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) elections. SP's national general secretary Shivpal Yadav, LOP in UP Assembly Mata Prasad Pandey, Azamgarh MP Dharmendra Yadav, former minister Kamal Akhtar and MLA Nafees Ahmad are among the top campaigners. The party currently has six seats in BMC and is contesting on 70 seats for which voting will be held on January 15. Abu Asim Azmi, the party's Maharashtra state president, had also invited Akhilesh to campaign for the party in the BMC elections. Speaking to HT over phone, Azmi, who is an MLA from Mankhurd Shivajinagar (Mumbai), said, "We have called big SP leaders from Uttar Pradesh to campaign for our candidates in the BMC elections. We also invited Akhilesh ji on January 10, but it could not be finalised due to some issues." "Many voters of SP in U.P. have their family members living in Mumbai. [Campaigning by U.P. leaders] will not just make the voters connect with leaders, but also boost their confidence. We will definitely perform better. We are going solo on all 70 seats this time," added Azmi....
