Possibility of reorganisation for the BJP unit in Telangana
On Tuesday the BJP had admitted that the poll debacle which occurred in the state of Telangana was colossal, massive and historic for the party and there might be a possibility of a fullscale reorganisation of the state unit
HYDERABAD: On Tuesday the BJP had admitted that the poll debacle which occurred in the state of Telangana was "colossal, massive and historic" for the party and there might be a possibility of a full-scale reorganisation of the state unit.
The BJP is stepping into an introspective mode, the chief spokesperson of the Telangana unit Krishna Saagar Rao had told a source that, “We are trying to assess the massive loss which is quite historic going from 1984 to where we are today. And trying to do some formal and informal reviews within the organisation to understand what went wrong in the run up to 2018 (Assembly election) since 2014,” Rao said.
As per Mr Rao, the performance of the party in the December seven Assembly election in the state of Telangana was a collective failure. "It's a colossal loss which we do not wish to hide. And the reasons for the same both politically, organisationally leadership-wise and in terms of planning and strategizing, all these areas will be reviewed and there is a possibility of formal review over this week-end," he added.
TRS has won 88 seats in the Assembly elections, by pushing the Congress to a distant second with just 19 seats while the TDP bagged only two."KCR was politically savvy and over-smart in completely hijacking the agenda of the elections to pit Naidu against him, thereby arouse sentiments, sympathy and insecure feelings amongst people of Telangana and voters which like a wave protected his party," he said.
