He said this was just a beginning and close on the heels of Modi’s visit, Union Home Minister Amit Shah too would visit the state. He said the party high command has set its eyes on the state elections. Meanwhile, Reddy on Monday appointed in-charges to 107 assembly constituencies and seven new district in-charges.
Modi is likely to target the young voters during his visit. Apart from showcasing the development agenda of the party, he would place before them BJP’s agenda of development initiatives in Telangana which would be aimed to benefit the youth.
