LUCKNOW: Union home minister and BJP chief strategist Amit Shah is set to embark on a statewide tour of poll-bound UP beginning Friday to escalate the party’s campaign and ramp up the organisational machinery at the grassroots in the run-up to the assembly elections.
While Shah’s schedule is yet to be announced formally, top BJP sources said he is expected to address public meetings at nearly 21 different locations. Each public meeting will be attended by party workers and supporters from the surrounding seven assembly constituencies. This way he will be touching around 140 assembly seats.
