The 45-day campaign, "Aapke Adhikar, Aapki Sarkar, Aapke Dwar" (Your Rights - Your Government, Your Door), will be held from Tuesday, November 16 to December 28. Under this, camps will be organized in every panchayat, wards, municipalities, municipal corporations across all the 24 districts in the state, according to an official handout.
