The selection of the place, which is linked with Lord Ram, has given the clear indication that party would like to revive the Hindutva agenda once again in Lok Sabha polls.

The political analysts are giving much importance to the observation made by veteran BJP leader LK Advani, who expressed his concern over the decline in vote percentage of party in UP.

BJP high command and LK Advani realise that BJP came to into power only when UP sent good number of MPs in Lok Sabha.

LK Advani gave his gurumantra to party leaders and workers to follow the principle of having a good character in day-to-day life, rather then only aspiring for important positions in the party or aiming to become MLAs, or MPs.

BJP’s dilemma of not projecting anyone for the prime ministerial candidate at present has demoralised the party workers in the state.

While rank and file of BJP wants Gujarat CM to be projected as PM, but in the presence of Advani in Chitrakoot, nobody talked about Modi.

Veteran BJP leader LK Advani himself considered that he had been the PM-in-waiting for several years and time had come to cash his popularity and experience in forthcoming polls.

Although the process of selection of candidates for BJP is still on, Samajwadi Party and BSP have taken lead in finalising the list of candidates.

BJP leaders feel that prominence given to pro-Hindutva leaders in Team Rajnath Singh has boosted the moral of party workers.

There is a perception in UP BJP that if party decides to field Narendra Modi from Lucknow, it would not only galvanise party workers, but also help party in neighbouring districts.

BJP leaders feel that campaigning by Gujarat CM Modi and other firebrands like Varun Gandhi and Uma Bharti would help party in Lok Sabha polls. (IPA Service)
