| After Hindutva, its price rise for BJP ahead of polls | | |
Dehradun, Sept 8 After deciding to make a big issue out of the row over Vande Mataram, BJP's top brass is working out a strategy to woo middle and lower middle class ahead of Assembly elections in several states, including Uttar Pradesh, by taking up the issue of price rise.
With much at stake for the saffron party in the upcoming polls, the party top brass is leaving nothing to chance to pick up issues concerning common man in what is seen as a strategy to attack the ruling Congress for its handling of the economy in the light of its "aam aadmi" agenda.
Presided over by party chief Rajnath Singh, who is making a determined bid to re-establish the BJP as an "organisation with a difference" in the backdrop of internal turmoil and one-upmanship by many of his colleagues, the national executive will be chalking out a plan of agitation over price rises when it meets for the second day today.
Singh, in his inaugural address at the executive yesterday, demanded a white paper on price rise as he accused the ruling UPA of failure in handling economic issues, citing the government's moves to put on hold disinvestment plans.
The main Opposition party will be coming out with a resolution condeming the UPA's track record on economy and is expected to demand urgent measures to check the price line. |
