"The campaigning will reach its fever pitch after April 30. And we have already covered some 50,000 houses as part of our door-to-door campaign," he added.

According to party sources, it has done an assessment of 100 seats in Lok Sabha. Out of 100, 41 seats were in the 'A category' where the party seems to be in with a reasonable chance.

Though the party has fielded some 450 candidates, it's prime focus is on Amethi and Varanasi. In Amethi, a pocket borough of Nehru Gandhi dynasty, the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has pitted Kumar Vishwas against Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi. Kejriwal has himself campaigned for Vishwas.
