On the last day of campaigning, BJP sitting MP, Hema Malini, aiming for a hat trick of wins, went on a road show in the interior parts of Mathura city.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressed a rally at Numaish Maidan of Aligarh on April 22. He sought votes for BJP candidates contesting from Aligarh and Hathras, the nearby districts which are to go to poll in the third phase.

Both BSP chief Mayawati and Samajwadi Party president Akhilesh Yadav chose the same day to address a public meeting in Aligarh but made no mention of each other in their respective addresses on Tuesday.

The BJP was the most active in the campaign on the whole as Union home minister Amit Shah addressed a rally in support of Hema Malini at Mathura and had RLD president Jayant Chaudhary along.
