BJP to take Modi’s 25-year public journey to people

Vijayawada: BJP state president P V N Madhav said the party would organise a month-long ‘Seva Sankalpa Abhiyan’ across the state to take Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s 25-year public life and his government’s achievements in development and welfare to the people.

Addressing a press conference at the BJP state office in Vijayawada on Thursday, Madhav said a series of service and social programmes would be conducted from September 17 to October 17. He said the party would highlight the country’s progress in digital economy, infrastructure, Make in India, Atmanirbhar Bharat, green hydrogen, quantum technology and artificial intelligence under Modi’s leadership.

He said the campaign would begin on September 17 with large-scale blood donation camps, while an ‘Aashirwad Deepam’ programme would also be held in the evening. Painting and essay competitions would be organised in schools and colleges on the theme of Viksit Bharat. Street plays and Burrakathas under ‘Namo Seva’ would explain welfare and development initiatives to the public.

Madhav said the party would honour Anganwadi and ASHA workers and organise medical camps, service activities, a ‘Seva Jyothi Yatra’, and ‘Marpu Katha’ programmes highlighting development-led transformation. A large-scale palm plantation drive titled ‘Palm Tree–Kalpavruksham’ would also be taken up in Andhra Pradesh.

He said the campaign would explain the Centre’s support for AP, including assistance to Polavaram and Amaravati, the Visakhapatnam South Coast Railway Zone, support to Visakhapatnam Steel Plant and investments in industrial corridors, green hydrogen, green steel, semiconductors and AI.

On local body elections, Madhav said the BJP was preparing in coordination with the TDP and Jana Sena. Field teams had already assessed the party’s strength in panchayats, MPTCs, ZPTCs, municipalities and corporations. Seat-sharing discussions were yet to be finalised, he said.

He added that the three alliance partners would soon meet again to chalk out a joint strategy.

A State office-bearers’ meeting would be held in Guntur on Friday to review the Seva Sankalpa Abhiyan and election preparedness.

State media in-charge Kilari Dileep, MLC Pothula Sunitha, state office in-charge Uppalapati Srinivas Raju, NTR district BJP president Adduri Sri Ram, and BJP state spokespersons Sheikh Baji and Jalli Madhusudan were among those who participated in the press conference.
