Polls Near, State BJP Prepares to Make Up for Lost Time
Deccan ChronicleHyderabad: The Telangana state BJP, which has been in the grip of several uncertainties over the past few months, is now geared up for action. As part of this endeavour, the state BJP leadership has decided that the party needs 22 committees that will accommodate various leaders, give them tasks to perform and also keep them busy. A day after Union minister G. Kishan Reddy took over as the party chief, the BJP has decided to set up various committees, which it hopes would sharpen planning as well as people outreach. Senior leaders, including Kishan Reddy, state election in-charge Prakash Javadekar and his deputy Sunil Bansal met with former MLAs, MLCs and MPs to discuss ideas for a 100-day action plan during a meeting held on Saturday. Starting August 1, the BJP plans to hold protests across the state on various issues, including payment of farm loan waiver dues, full implementation of the Dalit Bandhu scheme and timely payment of Aasara pensions, among others.
