The much-anticipated visit of Union Home Minister Amit Shah began in Telangana today amid a lot of fanfare. Immediately on arrival in Hyderabad today afternoon, he visited the home of a poor tribal woman named Soni Nayak at Ranganaraka Tanda in Balapur mandal. He along with other BJP leaders sipped tea offered by her. Amit Shah also took family group photos with her. The highlight of the occasion was that Shah gave the privilege of giving first membership to Soni Nayak on the inaugural day of the present drive.
Political analysts described this as a timely message given by the BJP leadership to CM K Chandrasekhara Rao. The TRS boss has been facing a typical problem in tribal areas these days. His TRS party leaders along with local tribals are clashing with forest department officials. KCR is taking political advantage out of this by winning the favour of tribals in respect of their rights over Podu lands.
Amit Shah made it a point to highlight how much interested his party is to resolve the problems of tribals and give them their rightful place in the party. His visit came amid strong indications that the Modi-Shah duo have chosen KCR and his son KTR as the immediate targets in the Telugu states.
