“If the Election Commission allows, we will take a padyatra (door-to-door campaign) in the city asking people to drop their votes in their “jholi” (bags).
Bhardwaj alleged “many influential parties had tried to buy Kamla after their efforts to stop her from entering the fray went in vain.”
A conference involving eunuchs from various states like Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Jharkhand, Delhi, Madhya Pradesh was held earlier in Gorakhpur and we then took the decision to name Kamla for the “Battle for Benares”, despite lakhs of rupees being offered for the withdrawal of her candidature, Bhardwaj said.
