While she was campaigning the actress spoke her heart out about why she was there. “I’ve never been a part of a political campaign before so I literally have no idea what to expect. I feel aligned to Kanhaiya’s views as a rational and patriotic citizen of the country. Kanhaiya raises issues that concern all Indians. Issues like the threat to the constitutional values and to the Constitution of India, unemployment, the rise of mob violence, the need for social justice and the need to focus on issues that will better the lives of all Indians. I think as responsible and patriotic Indians we should all feel aligned to this ideology or thought process,” Swara said in a statement.

The actress has been showing her active support for Kanhaiya through tweets since the past few days. While talking about her birthday, she further added, “It is a rather unusual way of spending one’s birthday. But Kanhaiya is a friend and I think he is fighting an important battle on behalf of us all. If he wins, it will be a victory for Indian democracy.”

Talking about Kanhaiya Kumar, he is the former president of the student wing in the Jawaharlal Nehru University. Kanhaiya is contesting for the Begusarai seat in the Lok Sabha Elections 2019.
