Joshi, who is all set to take on Union Coal Minister and sitting Congress MP Sri Prakash Jaiswal from the Kanpur constituency, arrived here without any prior announcement of the visit. This is his second visit after March 21.
After arriving here, Joshi first met party's senior leader in Kanpur Panna Lal Tambe and expressed grief on his wife's demise a few days ago, BJP office sources said.
The sources said Joshi has already started a door-to-door campaign, meeting party workers and citizens.
