BJP Slowly and Steadily Made Inroads Into Telangana in 2021, But Needs New Narrative in 2022 to Battle KCR

News 18  

After losing deposits and winning just one assembly seat in 2018, the BJP was labelled as a party that had no future in Telangana. Factors behind BJP’s rise Though political experts argue that the BJP could bag Huzurabad only because of the sympathy votes riding behind a six-time MLA like Eatala Rajender, the saffron party is slowly but steadily creating a perception that it is the sole challenger to the TRS. When Telangana BJP president Bandi Sanjay makes statements like “I will conduct surgical strikes in the Old City to eliminate illegal Rohingyas and Pakistanis shielded by Owaisi” and “Hyderabad will turn into Bhagyanagar”, they are not off-the-cuff remarks made in the heat of the moment but a conscious attempt to chisel his image as the protector of Hindus. BJP’s upcoming plans, RSS’s Mission Bhagyanagar After tasting success in the GHMC elections in which the BJP top leadership from Delhi, right from home minister Amit Shah, party president JP Nadda, Uttar Pradesh chief minister Yogi Adityanath to Yuva Morcha president Tejashvi Surya led a high-voltage campaign in Hyderabad, the local leadership has been trying to bring the top brass in Hyderabad to enthuse the cadre. Telangana BJP president Bandi Sanjay recently told the media that home minister Amit Shah will soon tour the state for two days and will interact with senior leaders.
