Mysuru: The public campaigning for the Mysuru City Corporation (MCC) elections came to a close at 7 am today and candidates and their supporters are now on a door-to-door canvassing. The usual hustle and bustle and the noise of public campaigning that was witnessed till last evening was missing this morning with candidates waking up before the crack of dawn and reaching places of canvassing. They, however, had to wind up public campaigning at 7 am.
Candidates and their four to five supporters are at present on a door-to-door campaign and are visiting homes in their last-ditch efforts to woo the voters. In all, there are 393 candidates from BJP, Congress and JD(S) and a host of independents fighting to gain a place in the 65-member Corporation Council. Voting will take place on Aug.31.
