The back to back reverses in elections has raised serious questions on strategy n leadership of Delhi state BJP.
After the formation of NAMO govt n poll debacle of AAP in loksabha elections 2014 it was evident BJP was all set to form govt in Delhi. But lacklustre leadership n infighting not only damaged party fortune but decimated it.
In 2016 byelections BJP managed to win only 3 seats despite bagging 34% votes.The BJP leaders vows for “Congress Mukt Bharat” but in 2016 Delhi byelections the inefficient leadership helped in “Congress Yukt Delhi”.
The central leadership is planning for big revamp in Delhi by launching actor turned politician North-East Delhi MP Manoj Tiwari as president Delhi BJP. The idea is to woo for 40% purvanchali voters in Delhi. This will effect BJP fortune in forthcoming Uttarpradesh elections in 2017.
The BJP central leadership are well aware of the fact that Manoj Tiwari has fanfollowing across party lines.Every candidate demands his program during elections.The heavy turnout in election rallies of Manoj Tiwari has forced central leadership to hand over reins in Delhi.
The down to earth personality of Manoj Tiwari n his calibre to connect with commonman will infuse new lease of life in demoralised party workers.
After the victory in 2014 loksabha elections Manoj Tiwari had proved he enjoys support from all communuties specially the politically dominant Punjabi n Vaishya in Delhi. It will be good political move by Amit Shah to declare Manoj Tiwari as president Delhi Pradesh BJP.
बीजेपी को फायदा होगा
सांसद मनोज तिवारी को दिल्ली बीजेपी अध्यक्ष बनाए जाने के पीछे पार्टी का खास मकसद है। पार्टी दिल्ली में कांग्रेस के अजय माकन और आप के केजरीवाल की टक्कर में किसी जाने-पहचाने चेहरे को अध्यक्ष बनाना चाहती है। मनोज तिवारी पूर्वांचल से हैं। दिल्ली में पूर्वांचल के लोगों की तादाद 50 फीसदी के आसपास है। ज्यादातर पूर्वांचल के लोगों की ज्यादा संख्या अनधिकृत कालोनियों में हैं, जो पहले कांग्रेस और बाद में आम आदमी पार्टी का मुख्य वोट बन गया। भाजपा इस वोटबैंक में सेंध् लगाना चाहती है।
