- Union Home Minister expresses unhappiness in Jabalpur meeting
- Rebellion and infighting among leaders becomes a big problem
Milind Muzumdar, Indore
The party’s top strategist Amit Shah is not completely satisfied with the BJP’s election campaign in Madhya Pradesh. During the meeting of Jabalpur division on Saturday, he expressed his unhappiness in this regard to the top leaders of the state. Apart from rebel candidates, internal tussle between leaders has emerged as a big problem. Apart from this, apathy is also being seen among BJP workers. Because of this, the enthusiasm with which workers participate in elections is not visible this time.
He has told all the big leaders of the state that efforts should be made to return the nominations of the rebel candidates as soon as possible, apart from this, every possible effort should be made to remove the resentment of the leaders and bring them into the field. Here, according to sources, the Sangh has warned the BJP leadership about the apathy of the field leaders and workers. The anti-incumbency factor has also not been completely controlled.
Sources say that Union Home Minister Amit Shah himself is not satisfied with the election campaign of BJP. Especially in the previous elections, the way the workers were electrified as the elections approached, the same spark is not visible this time. Sources say that the Sangh Parivar also seems indifferent this time. When discussed in this regard, a leader of BJP’s election team said that the negativity of MLAs and ministers is costing the party heavily. These MLAs and ministers completely ignored the workers. The workers were not only harassed but also extorted heavily through relatives. The result is that all the efforts of Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan are being overshadowed by the inaction and arrogance of the MLAs and ministers. Apart from this, the chemistry of BJP’s organization has also deteriorated due to Jyotiraditya Scindia. Jyotiraditya Scindia himself and the central leadership have made a lot of efforts in this regard but the matter is still out of control. The party is especially worried about Malwa Nimar, Mahakaushal and Gwalior Chambal region. About 140 seats come from these three areas. According to sources, Union Home Minister Amit Shah conducted a detailed review of 38 seats of Mahakaushal. He has received adverse feedback about the political situation here.
BJP’s front organizations are not working at full capacity
The feedback to Amit Shah is that the parent organization of BJP is still active, but the tribal and Dalit cells including Mahila, Youth and Kisan Morcha are not working at full capacity. Sources say that officials of the central region unit of Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh have given feedback to BJP in this regard. The biggest problem is the apathy of the workers. BJP strategists estimate that at present the party is in a safe zone on only 70 seats. These are the seats where BJP is continuously winning. Whereas 50 seats are still in the very weak category. BJP has kept 50 other seats in B category where more work is needed. There are 60 such seats in the state, where Congress and BJP are on equal footing.
