MADURAI: The BJP, which has declared that Madurai’s next mayor will be a Muslim woman, has fielded three Muslim candidates in the city for the local body elections, two of them women.
The three, Meharunisha P, 36, Kashifa Syed, 25 and Basheer Ahmed, 50, say they want to change the perception of BJP being anti-Muslim and focus on resolving civic issues in the localities where they are contesting.
