The BJP is gearing up to organise a massive ‘Maha Padayatra’ in Karimnagar on November 18, with plans to mobilise at least one lakh people to counter what it termed as malicious propaganda by opposition parties against constitutional institutions.
BJP leader Nitin Nabin will visit Karimnagar for the first time and participate in the foot march. State BJP president N Ramachandra Rao and union Minister of State for Home Affairs Bandi Sanjay Kumar will also lead the march.
The padayatra will begin at Gandhi Circle and Vaishya Bhavan, pass through Tower Circle and culminate at Kaman.
As part of the preparations, Bandi Sanjay held a meeting with core committee leaders of the Karimnagar parliamentary constituency at his MP office on Tuesday to review arrangements and discuss strategies for mobilising participants.
Speaking at the meeting, Bandi Sanjay accused the Congress and the INDIA alliance of spreading misinformation, conspiring to undermine the Election Commission and attacking constitutional institutions. He alleged that opposition parties were attempting to weaken democratic institutions and mislead the public.
He said Nitin Nabin’s visit would provide an opportunity to present the facts before the people and bring national attention to Karimnagar.
Stressing the importance of making the programme a grand success, Bandi Sanjay asked party leaders and workers to organise mobilisation drives at polling booth, Shakti Kendra and mandal levels. He also called for extensive publicity through mainstream and social media platforms.
Several senior BJP leaders, including Karimnagar and Sircilla district presidents Saini Mallesham and Reddaboyina Gopi, Mayor Kolagani Srinivas, Deputy Mayor Sunil Rao and former district presidents Basa Satyanarayana and Gangadi Krishna Reddy, attended the meeting.
