BJP Chief Amit Shah predicted that they will come to power in Telangana. He will be coming to Hyderabad along with the PM Modi to campaign for the elections. Coming to power means they have to get around 70 seats. Now they have taken Paripooranananda a Swamy like Yogi Adityanath into the party for campaigning. The Swamy has predicted that they will get 70 seats in Telangana.
The assessment of KTR the TRS Minister is that the BJP may not get the 5 seats that they are holding in the state. Some others say that they will not get the double-digit. Yesterday the party office was ransacked by the supporters of one candidate for not giving a seat in Nizamabad.
It was brushed off as a publicity stunt by other parties. The BJP leaders must know that the straight fight in Telangana is between the TRS and the Congress. The Congress will come a distant second in the race. The BJP may retain the seats that it has with great difficulty. Now the latest is that Swamy Paripoornananda is also interested in contesting the election.
How far the BJP will succeed has to be seen. Most of them are of the opinion that both TRS and BJP are contesting with a broad understanding. The BJP has been there in Telugu states since last several decades, but they could not cross the double-digit in the Assembly. The same old trend will continue.
