BJP's strategy for assembly elections in 5 states: No CM face here, focus will be on local issues
The central leadership of the BJP has prepared a strategy for the elections to be held in 5 states including Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, and Chhattisgarh. Two things are important in this. The first is that elections in all five states will be fought under collective leadership. That is, no leader will be projected as CM face. Secondly, the focus will be on local issues.
A senior BJP leader told that the CM project will not be done in Chhattisgarh, Rajasthan, and Telangana. There is a BJP government in MP and Manipur, so there is no need to project the face of the CM there. Will elections be contested in MP under the leadership of Shivraj? On this question, a general secretary of BJP said that CM, former CM, and all big leaders come under collective leadership.
What achievements will the BJP contest in MP keep in front? On this question, a senior said- 'What the state government did in the last 4 years is not the issue. How Madhya Pradesh was successful in erasing the stain of 'Bimaru Pradesh' during the entire reign of Shivraj, will tell this to the people. Can't tell now which achievement and how to keep it.
BJP General Secretary Arun Singh said that the plight of Dalits-backwards, harassment of women, corruption, appeasement, and breaking promises are the main issues in Rajasthan. We will take it up in a phased manner and tell how we will work on these issues after the change of government.
