Besides, the half of AAP's Delhi volunteers will throng the two constituencies for campaigning.
"We have around 30 to 40,000 volunteers and half of them will be sent to help the unit of Varanasi and Amethi," another party leader told IANS.
Party sources told IANS that Birla might gather Dalit votes in the state.
"After all she is AAP's Mayawati," a party leader said, referring to the Bahujan Samaj Party supremo and the former chief minster of Uttar Pradesh.
