Thiruvananthapuram, April 18 (). Kerala BJP president K Surendran on Tuesday said a large number of people from other parties and economic strata would join his party after Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s visit to the state on April 25.
One of the reasons Surendran is upbeat is the response to the trial run of the Vande Bharat train on Monday, when the train went to Kannur and returned. Thousands of people reached various railway stations and pro-Modi slogans were heard.
Modi will flag off the first business trip from here on April 25. “Wait and see, a good number of people from different political parties and economic status will join the BJP after the Prime Minister’s visit and it has already started in Kottayam when around 80 people from prominent families joined the BJP on Tuesday,” he said. .
Minority communities in Kerala have started accepting the BJP, he claimed. Like Kottayam, a large number of people are waiting to join the BJP in Pathanamthitta. In general, there has been a huge increase in the acceptability of the BJP.
Modi is arriving in Kochi on the same day to inaugurate a youth meet, which will feature Anil K Antony, son of the country’s longest-serving Defense Minister AK Antony, for the first time after joining the BJP.
The BJP neither has a single member in the 140-member Kerala Assembly nor in the 20 Lok Sabha seats.
