Elaborating on his brainchild – the one-minute manifesto – Anshuman Sharma, a member of the SP ‘war room’, says this will make up for those places where party workers cannot go to drum up support for the ruling party.
“Mostly, party workers are moving from door-to-door in selected areas chosen by the campaign team…But, they cannot go everywhere. The 60-second script is for those who might not have heard about the manifesto,” Anshuman explains.
He said committed party workers talk to people and tell them about SP’s manifesto and hand them postcards highlighting key points in the manifesto.
“We urge them that if they like the promises made in the manifesto and want to extend support to SP, they should give a missed call to a particular number. Once the person gives a missed call they get a return call from us,” he said.
