In the first and second phases of the campaign, the party discussed the problems related with youth and women.

"Problems related with rural, health and education, traders, lokpal and transparency in governance and traffic, parking and public transport will be discussed in the other five phases of campaign. It will be concluded Jan 18," Khaitan said.
