RSS WORKING ON STRATEGY TO BOOST BJP IMAGE

With the decline in the popularity graph of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the RSS is reportedly unhappy with the direction taken by the NDA government and is working on strategies that will help it achieve its political objectives. This is clearly seen in the presence of BJP president Amit Shah at Samnvay Bhaitak (coordination meeting) being held at Mantralayam for three days in Kurnool district.

“Mr Shah is a shrewd leader. He is pragmatic, positive to suggestions and executes them perfectly,” said an RSS leader.

With the decline in the popularity graph of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the RSS is reportedly unhappy with the direction taken by the NDA government and is working on strategies that will help it achieve its political objectives.

This is clearly seen in the presence of BJP president Amit Shah at the Samnvay Bhaitak (coordination meeting) being held at Mantralayam for three days from Friday in Kurnool district.

“Mr Shah is a shrewd leader. He never allows any friction to develop. He is pragmatic, positive to suggestions and executes them perfectly,” said an RSS leader. The larger issue, he explained, was the friction over the economic visions of the present government and the RSS.

“If we cannot get our economic vision implemented under what is the strongest BJP-led government and under a decisive leader,” he said, “then perhaps we could never do it. This may be our last chance.”

The only reason that prevented an all-out war between the Sangh Parivar and the BJP, as had happened during NDA-I, is the equation between Narendra Modi-Amit Shah duo and RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat.

Several Rayalaseema leaders had demanded implementation of the Rayalaseema Declaration announced by the state BJP at Kurnool.

“The BJP sees tremendous opportunity to gain ground in Rayalaseema. At least 15-20 Assembly seats have been intensely targeted by the BJP which is at a distance.” a BJP leader said.
