"We are in favour of the elections and we want the civic polls to be held at the earliest. The SMP polls should also be held on time. We have started preparations for the elections and in view of that, we will organise a grand rally for the Siliguri Assembly on 3 October," Siliguri MLA and veteran CPI-M leader Asok Bhattacharya said.
