It’s now almost certain that BJP Telangana president Bandi Sanjay is all set to launch his ambitious 55 day and 750 km long Padayatra across Telangana. August 9 is historic Quit India day. The Yatra will end on October 2, the Gandhi Jyanthi day. True to BJP’s sentiment, the yatra will begin from the historic Bhagyalakshmi temple near Charminar in the Old City.
The BJP, which created quite a buzz after two back-to-back victories in Dubbak and the GHMC, has of late lost the initiative. It had failed badly in Nagarjunasagar and did not perform according to expectations in Warangal civic body. The party further lost initiative when groupism and internal power struggles began threatening it. Of late, key leaders like Bandi Sanjay and Dharmapuri Aravind have gone silent. In fact, on his becoming the TPCC chief, Revanth Reddy has attacked the BJP first. He said both Bandi (Sanjay) and Gundu (referring to the tonsured head of Dharmapuri Aravind) are silent. So, the BJP thinking heads have decided that something needs to be done quickly to regain initiative.
To add to BJP’s woes, Revanth Reddy is displaying great dynamism soon after taking over. He has met all the senior leaders and is getting Gandhi Bhavan renovated. Meanwhile, he has sent his teams to plan and finalise his yatra. He has also trained his guns on the TRS and is trying to emerge as the main opposition to the TRS. So, the BjP strategists decided that a yatra at this stage is important for the party.
