New Delhi, 22nd Jan. As the Delhi Assembly elections draw closer, the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) at the Centre is ramping up its efforts to secure a victory in the national capital. Determined to break the Aam Aadmi Party’s (AAP) winning streak, the BJP plans to launch a high-octane campaign after Republic Day, marked by rallies and outreach programs led by its star campaigners.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi is set to address three rallies on January 29, January 31, and February 2. The first will be held at the Yamuna Khadar area near Kartar Nagar in North-East Delhi, the second near Vegas Mall in Dwarka, and the third in another key constituency. Alongside PM Modi, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath will play a pivotal role, addressing 14 rallies across Delhi, targeting constituencies with a high concentration of Purvanchali voters.
Other prominent leaders, including Home Minister Amit Shah, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, BJP President J.P. Nadda, and Union Ministers like Nitin Gadkari, will also join the campaign. Additionally, Chief Ministers from BJP-ruled states, such as Pushkar Singh Dhami (Uttarakhand), Himanta Biswa Sarma (Assam), and Bihar’s Deputy Chief Minister Samrat Choudhary, will add to the BJP’s star power in Delhi.
The party has already conducted over 2,500 small meetings, including targeted “drawing-room” gatherings, and aims to hold 70 events around Makar Sankranti, with 50 already completed. These meetings focus on promoting the BJP-led Central government’s welfare schemes and achievements.
A major element of BJP’s strategy is wooing Purvanchali voters, who make up nearly 50% of Delhi’s electorate, particularly in slum clusters. To appeal to this demographic, BJP is leveraging its Purvanchali faces like Ravi Kishan, Manoj Tiwari, and Nirahua. Bike rallies and other events are also planned to energize the voter base in Purvanchali-dominated areas.
The stakes are high as the BJP aims to oust AAP, which has governed Delhi for two consecutive terms. The election results will reveal whether the BJP’s aggressive campaign and targeted outreach resonate with voters or whether AAP retains its grip on the capital.
The battle for Delhi promises to be fierce, with both parties vying to secure the trust and mandate of its diverse electorate. As the campaign heats up, all eyes will be on February’s polling day to determine the political future of the national capital.
