Yeddyurappa asks BJP workers to live up to Modi's expectations
Karnataka BJP president B S Yeddyurappa on Friday urged the party workers to live up to Prime Minister Narendra Modis expectation of winning 300 seats in the coming Lok Sabha elections by winning all the 28 seats from the state alone
Bengaluru: Karnataka BJP president B S Yeddyurappa on Friday urged the party workers to live up to Prime Minister Narendra Modi's expectation of winning 300 seats in the coming Lok Sabha elections by winning all the 28 seats from the state alone.
"We have to live up to the expectation of Modiji by winning more than 300 seats and hence, we have to win all the 28 seats in Karnataka. This is the responsibility we have," said Yeddyurappa in his address to the 'pramukhs' (heads) of 10 Shakti Kendras in the run-up to the parliamentary polls.
He also asked the party cadre to serve as full-time workers just as Modi has been doing ever since he assumed office.
Giving a clarion call for "Mera Booth, SabseMazboot" -- the party's slogan to the grassroots-level workers for aggressive campaigning ahead of the elections --- Yeddyurappa said the election dates could be announced any time soon.
He reminded Shakti Kendra 'pramukhs' that the Prime Minister had a vision to see India as a superpower in the world. Hence, it was the responsibility of all the party workers to put in all their efforts to make him the Prime Minister again, he added. "Prime Minister Modi did not take rest for even a single day in the last four and half years.
You have noticed that he is toiling hard to make India and the party stronger," Yeddyurappa told the party workers. Hailing MiG-21 pilot AbhinandanVarthaman, who displayed extraordinary valour, Yeddyurappa said Pakistan agreed to release him, following a warning by Modi.
Yeddyurappa had come under fire Thursday for his statement that the IAF's pre-emptive strike inside Pakistan territory would help the party secure at least 22 out of 28 seats in Karnataka.
