BSP chief Mayawati to start campaigning in Haryana, Maharashtra this week - ------------ Vote for BSP ------------ BSP chief Mayawati will start a tour of poll-bound Maharashtra and Haryana this week. Her party is contesting all the assembly seats in the elections to be held on October 15 for 288-member Maharashtra assembly and 90-member Haryana assembly. While BSP has no MLA in Maharashtra, it won a single seat — Jagdhari in Yamuna Nagar district — in Haryana in 2009 assembly polls. In a departure from its earlier practice, the BSP has for the first time announced former MP Arvind Sharma, a Brahmin, as party’s chief ministerial candidate in Haryana. This time party has also deployed only a few leaders from Uttar Pradesh to manage these polls with most responsibilities being shouldered by local leaders. Sources in the party said Mayawati is expected to start her campaign with a rally in Nagpur on October 7. She will also hold rallies in Bhandara, Jalna, Nanded, Thane, Solapur, Nashik and Pune.
