MP Chandrashekhar Azad tried his best several times in Meerapur ground for his candidate Zahid Hussain. Asaduddin Owaisi also campaigned vigorously for his candidate Arshad Rana, where he tried to change the election atmosphere in his favor with his sarcastic arrows in a big public meeting.
BSP supremo Mayawati fielded Shah Nazar, but no big leader of BSP was seen in the field. Even Mayawati herself did not hold any rally or road show, but the candidates of all the three parties made the contest interesting with their claims and publicity.
Kakrauli remained the center point
