New Delhi, March 14 (IANS) The Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) seems to have taken the lead in terms of costly electioneering material, namely six-feet tall blue elephants, costing Rs.5,000 each.
'Prepared from waterproof cloth, the elephants have been made following special orders placed by BSP activists,' Rajesh Agarwal, owner of Sheela Enterprsies, told IANS in Lucknow.
Sold as 'gubbara' (balloon) in the market, the elephant stands tall when filled with air. The elephant is the election symbol of the BSP.
Agrawal, who has been in the business for 20 years, said this is the first time such costly electioneering material is available in the market.
