The Karnataka BJP will come out with a charge sheet on the “failures” and “non-implementation” of the promises made by the Congress government by January 16.

The youth wing of the party will then disseminate the contents of the charge sheet to each and every household in all 224 Assembly constituencies between February 15 and 22.

A decision to this effect was taken at a meeting chaired by BJP national president Amit Shah to review the Assembly poll preparedness of the party at a private resort on the outskirts of the city on Sunday.

The meeting was attended by top state leaders, functionaries, state election in-charge Prakash Javadekar and Piyush Goyal.

Briefing reporters, Union Minister Ananth Kumar said conventions of the SC/ST, OBC and women morchas of the party will be organised in each of the Assembly constituencies in February.

Micro-level planning

He said the party had constituted around 55,000 booth committees across the state. As a step forward, the party will appoint an “in-charge” for every 30-50 voters.

“Usually, the list in a polling booth has around 900 voters and runs into 25 to 30 pages. We will appoint an incharge for each page in the list. The incharge will have built a rapport with the voters entrusted to him by the time elections are held,” Kumar said.

He said the Nava Karnataka Nirmana Parivarthana Yatra led by party state president B S Yeddyurappa was getting excellent response across the state.

“The yatra has entered the 145th constituency. In contrast, Chief Minister Siddaramaiah is on government tour only in constituencies won by the Congress, while JD(S) president H D Kumaraswamy has given up his yatra mid-way,” Kumar said.

BJP leaders B S Yeddyurappa, Jagadish Shettar, K S Eshwarappa, among others, were present.
