Hyderabad: BJP national president Nitin Nabin will visit Karimnagar on November 18 and participate in a mega padayatra planned by the party. Union Minister of State for Home Affairs Bandi Sanjay Kumar is organising the march, targeting a turnout of one lakh people.
Nabin will address participants during the event. The BJP plans to use the march to counter opposition criticism of constitutional institutions over the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) process. The party has described the opposition campaign as misleading.
Meanwhile, Bandi Sanjay held a meeting with Karimnagar Parliamentary Constituency Core Committee leaders at his MP office. They discussed preparations and arrangements for the proposed march. Sanjay said the party intended to make Nabin’s first visit to Karimnagar a major event.
Karimnagar mega padayatra route and mobilisation plans
The proposed march will begin at Gandhi Circle and Vaishya Bhavan. From there, it will proceed through Tower Circle and conclude at Kaman. Nabin, Telangana BJP president Ramachander Rao and Bandi Sanjay will join party workers and members of the public.
Speaking at the preparatory meeting, Bandi Sanjay said the party was planning the march on a large scale. Accordingly, organisers were making arrangements to bring at least one lakh people to the event.
He also asked party leaders to coordinate mobilisation through polling booth units, Shakti Kendras and mandal-level organisations. In addition, he called for meetings at each level to secure participation.
Bandi Sanjay alleged that the Congress and the INDIA bloc were spreading misinformation about SIR. He accused them of targeting the Election Commission and undermining constitutional institutions and democratic processes. Therefore, he said Nabin’s visit would help explain the party’s position to the public.
The Union Minister also urged party leaders to publicise the march widely through mainstream media and social media platforms.
