BJP national general secretary D. Purandeswari has called upon the party workers to create awareness among the people on the funds being allocated by the Union government for the development of Andhra Pradesh and, thereby, strengthen the party in the State.
Describing the party workers as a pillar of strength for the BJP, Ms. Purandeswari, while addressing the North Andhra BJP Zonal meeting here on Wednesday, said it was the party workers who had contributed to the success of the BJP in Tripura. Similarly, it was the party workers who had proved the critics wrong by ensuring the success of the party for the second consecutive time in Uttar Pradesh. She said these examples should form the basis for bringing the party to power in A.P. and to silence those who say that the BJP had no strength in the State.
The deft handling of the COVID-19 pandemic by the Modi government proved its leadership qualities, she said. Indigenous technologies were developed to tackle the crisis and 170 crore doses of the vaccine were given and the pandemic was brought under control, she added.
