BJP national president Amit Shah will sound the election bugle by addressing a public meeting in Karimnagar on Wednesday. This would be his first visit to north Telangana since he took over as party president.
State BJP president K Laxman on Tuesday said Shah would arrive at Begumpet airport at 11am and proceed to Road No 12, Banjara Hills, where he would garland the statue of Maharaj Agrasen on the occasion of Maharaj Agrasen Jayanti. Later, he would go to a temple in Kachiguda. Laxman said Shah would interact with
polling booth workers at Nampally exhibition grounds. After having lunch, he would leave for Karimnagar in a special helicopter around 2pm.
“The BJP will ask TRS president and CM K Chandrasekhar Rao as to why he had opted for early elections. We will expose the failures of the TRS government and highlight achievements of the NDA government,” Laxman told the media here. The BJP chief ’s visit to Telangana would further strengthen the party, he said.
