To mark the 8th anniversary of the Modi government, the BJP will launch a 15-day campaign on May 30 to reach out to all the sections of the society but with particular emphasis on the Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes and Minorities.
BJP president J P Nadda will kick off the campaign themed ‘8 Years: Service, Good Governance and Welfare of the Poor’ on May 30 by releasing a book titled ‘A Report to the Nation’.
BJP MPs and MLAs have been asked to actively participate in the public outreach programmes from booth to national level during which rallies and ‘Prabhat Pheri’ will be organised across the country and a report card on the performance of the Modi government will be released.
It will be followed by a public outreach programme over 10 days though the celebrations will continue for five days more. Each day of the exercise has been dedicated to specific segments of the society like farmers, women, SCs, STs, OBCs, weaker sections, urban poor and others.
The BJP has earmarked three days each for highlighting the welfare programmes focusing on the minorities and tribals. The campaign will also serve the political cause as Assembly polls in States like Gujarat and Himachal Pradesh are scheduled later this year.
From June 6 to 8, the party will reach out to the minorities under the programme- ‘Interacting with Minorities’. The BJP’s minority cell members will meet people from minority communities to make them aware of welfare programmes undertaken by the Modi government for them.
From June 3 to 5, a Birsa Munda Vishwas Rally and a Tribal Mela will be held in Jharkhand’s capital Ranchi, where BJP’s tribal leaders, including MPs, will highlight the government’s efforts for the uplift of the tribal communities. Tribal fairs will be organised in all Scheduled Tribe-dominated districts across the country.
The Bhartiya Yuva Janata Morcha will organise ‘Prabhat Pheri’ highlighting the achievements of the
Modi government and take out ‘Vikas Tirath’ bike rallies in all districts where local MLAs and MPs will also participate.
The party will also reach out to the vast Dalit community through a rally in Madhya Pradesh’s Mhow. All senior Dalit leaders, MPs and MLAs of the BJP will attend the rally.
