The constituency-wise manifestos will highlight local issues and prescribe solutions for a focused campaign at grassroots level, the leader cited above said, adding, “We have already prepared draft manifestos for a large number of seats. Once the seat sharing is final, we will finalise the individual manifestos for our seats. The process is ongoing.”
