In the Monday meetings, the tickets for the municipal councils were finalised and majority of candidates for the municipal corporations will be finalised on Tuesday.

Rupani has appointed incharges to manage the campaign and organisational efforts for the upcoming polls and state organisational secretary Manthri Shrinivasulu has been tasked with assisting him.
