Bengaluru, Aug 28: The state BJP on Sunday commenced district-wise meetings of its units to deliberate on a plan of action to strengthen the party’s political activity at the grassroots ahead of the Assembly polls.
Members of the core committee headed by BJP state president B S Yeddyurappa will be present at each of the meetings which will go on for the next five days. The districts of Shivamogga, Chikkamagaluru, Uttara Kannada and Udupi were covered on Sunday.
The meetings come close on the heels of party national president Amit Shah’s recent warning to state leaders that he expected visible progress in the party’s performance as well as improvement in its image in the coming weeks, failing which he will be forced to crack the whip.
Review meeting
Shah held a review meeting with core committee members in New Delhi on Saturday.
Prime on the agenda of the party is to strengthen booth-level committees and sort out differences, if any among district leaders.
The party has decided to take out “Nava Karnataka Parivartan Yatra” to expose the “misdeeds” of the Siddaramaiah government.
wwThe yatra will start on November 1 to coincide with Kannada Rajyotsava.
The BJP is planning six mega conventions in different parts of the state in the coming weeks. The party will also organise protests, dharnas, rallies, two-wheeler rallies, torch-light processions and silent processions against the government at the state, district and taluk levels.
Speaking at a party event in Bengaluru, Yeddyurappa said a large number of leaders from other parties will be joining the BJP three months ahead of the polls.
He said ticket has not been promised to anybody to contest the elections and it will be decided by Shah. Yeddyurappa said the party should strive to secure a thumping majority in the polls.
