BJP streamlining existing organisational setup to face polls in Telangana

Adilabad: The BJP is making efforts to streamline the party’s existing organisational setup by changing leadership at booth, mandal, and district levels and also its frontal organisations to face the approaching elections in Telangana state.

Observers appointed for sets of three each parliament constituencies started conducting meetings with BJP leaders and the respective district president to ascertain the party’s present status in terms of mass support in each LS constituency.

Later, a similar exercise will be done in each assembly constituency under the Adilabad, Peddapalli and Karimnagar parliament constituencies.

The party’s top leadership aims to bank, principally, on Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s charisma and explain to the people the success stories of the country in various fields under his leadership in the last nine years.

The party is insisting that the second-rung leaders must interact with leaders of opponent political parties and invite them to join the BJP in order to strengthen the party in the run-up to the elections. The party's high command is conducting meetings with the party leaders of 21 assembly constituencies in the Adilabad, Peddapalli and Karimnagar parliament constituencies.

Observer for three parliament constituencies, Keshav Prasad, a BJP MLC from Karnataka, said the central emissaries were trying to strengthen the party’s organisational base in the rural and urban areas in the run-up to the polls. He said the assembly elections would be held, as scheduled, in December and Lok Sabha polls in May next year.

He said serious efforts would be made to activate the committees that were defunct or not active and the focus would be on booth committees and Shakti Kendras, the party full-timers, the social media wings, and the party's frontal organisations.

Keshav Prasad said all leaders must extend their support to the party candidate in each constituency though many have applied for the party ticket from each assembly constituency. “The party will select the candidates based on their winnability, financial position, their organisational work and public image," he said.

The party observers are preparing reports on the party’s organisational strengths and weaknesses in the booth, mandal, assembly constituency levels, as also district level and these would soon be submitted to the state committee.
