BJP to intensify social media campaign in Kerala, Tripura

The BJP would intensify its campaign through the social media against the "misrule and vilence" in Left-ruled Kerala and Tripura, party General Secretary Ram Madhav said here on Monday.

"We will reinforce our campaign through the social media against the misrule, violence, and underdevelopment in Kerala and Tripura," Ram Madhav told media persons.

He said: "Violence is the only tool the Left parties have against the Bharatiya Janata Party and the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh in both states. The BJP will made all-out efforts against the Left Front led by Communispt Party of India-Marxist in the next Tripura assembly elections."

The northeastern state goes to polls in February next year.

"The BJP will highlight the underdevelopment and misgovernance in Tripura."

The BJP leader, who arrived here on Monday, held a core committee meeting of the party and also addressed party cadres on the social media campaign.

"The Left, especially the CPI-M, with clandestine support of state machinery has turned Kerala into a killing field and went berserk against the BJP-RSS workers and leaders. They have the history of violence. They have indulged in violence in West Bengal earlier," Ram Madhav said.

"Yesterday (Sunday) also, a BJP worker was killed in Kerala by Marxist goons. Their ideology is to do violence against their opponents."

The BJP leader said during his recent visit to Bangladesh, he campaigned to promote bilateral trade.

"Trade can be done through waterways also as more than 50 rivers flow between India and Bangladesh."
