Bhartiya Janta Party national president Amit Shah held a series of meetings during his one-day visit to Ranchi. Shah reviewed BJP’s membership drive in Jharkhand and appealed to the cadres to pull up their socks and change the people’s outlook on the land acquisition Bill. The national president also attended the party’s core committee meeting before heading back to Delhi.
According to sources, Shah motivated party workers to convince people especially farmers about the benefits of land Acquisition Bill and turn the tables on opposition for putting up a resistance through mass movement by picking up the act in bits and pieces. Shah said a lot of confusion has been created over land Acquisition Bill, which needs to be dispelled, said the source.
The BJP doesn’t looks to let the momentum of popularity that built over months to go away without substantial achievements. The magnetic leader of the BJP expressed that the achievements of the Central and State Government must be shared with the common man to convey the message of public service through better governance.
Shah said BJP is well-disposed towards farmers and the Government of Narendra Modi is committed to extend all types of help for farmers’ empowerment whereas thousands of farmers committed suicide because of wrong land acquisition and agriculture policies of the Congress. Shah, the 10th national president said opposition parties have submitted their suggestion on land Acquisition Bill and the government wants to table a new draft of the bill in lok Sabha with nine amendments.
Shah praised party workers for their efforts made for increasing cadre strength and appealed to make best use of the time extension given to drive to recruit as many more cadres as possible. Sources said the national president did some plain talking in the core committee meeting and asked all leaders to work jointly in the State and also said that running a government in the State is a collective responsibility of all the leaders hence, all must contribute their part in ensuring success of the BJP-led Government.
