MNS does tele marketing! Southern states help.

The party that prides itself as the champion of the Marathi cause actually uses a call centre in Hyderabad, Andhra Pradesh, to tap voters in Mumbai through mobile phone marketing.

The low cost offered by the hi-tech city could be one reason why MNS outsourced a critical part of its make-or-break political campaign to a next-door state. But Maharashtra's political class is using every trick and the internet, to woo voters in a no-holds-barred election to be held on October 13.
