The Telangana BJP has already begun its preparations for the upcoming graduates' constituencies elections in the state.
The party's election preparatory committee today held a meeting that was attended by over seventy leaders, including bigwigs MP Bandi Sanjay Kumar, Minister of State for Home Affairs G Kishan Reddy, party national Vice President D K Aruna, BJP OBC National Morcha president K Laxman and state in-charge Tarun Chugh, to discuss the party's strategy to win the Hyderabad-Ranga Reddy-Mahbubnagar and the Nalgonda-Khammam-Warangal graduate constituency seats in the upcoming MLC elections.
At the meeting, the leaders expressed their hope of recreating the party's victories in the
Dubbaka by-election and
the GHMC elections.
They instructed the party cadre and activists to coordinate with each other and devise a fail-proof strategy to win the upcoming elections, and to focus on resolving the issues of the people through a door-to-door campaign.
In fact, state in-charge Tarun Chugh even asked each of the party workers to pick out 10 to 50 voters and to maintain personal contact with them in order to ensure that the people accepted the party wholeheartedly.
It was also decided that the BJP would focus on addressing the problems being faced by the teachers and other government employees in the state while campaigning.
The committee also finalised its strategy to reach out to about six lakh voters of the two graduate constituencies.
"We are keen to retain the Hyderabad-Rangareddy-Mahbubnagar graduate constituency seat. Once the election dates are finalised, we will launch our campaign in the third week of January," MLC N Ramchander Rao told the media.
The BJP's leadership has also been taking some other critical steps to strengthen the party before the elections. For one, it has conducted membership drives for graduates in Hyderabad, Mahabubnagar and Rangareddy. Of the 5.8 lakh graduates, the party and its allied wings have registered about 3 lakh graduates.
Also, after seeing its efforts to involve its national leadership in the campaign for the GHMC election pay off, the party has decided to rope in several BJP bigshots for the upcoming MLC elections as well. While during the GHMC elections union Minister of Home Affairs Amit Shah, UP Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath and BJP national president J P Nadda were roped in to participate in the party's campaign, this time union ministers Nirmala Sitharaman, Piyush Goyal, Prakash Javadekar and Sadananda Gowda will reportedly be invited to campaign.
