For the first time since the modi government came to power in 2014, senior Union ministers and top functionaries in the BJP and the RSS are on the defensive and unsure of how to communicate to the people as the second Covid curve rages across the country. But, there’s a consensus that “concern has touched every household” and other people must see extra “effort and achievement” to really feel some “reassurance”. To that impact, there are additionally voices within the social gathering and the RSS speculating on the necessity for the federal government to “revamp its staff” in order that it may ship.
The sunday Express spoke to some Union ministers and several functionaries in the bjp and the RSS to get a sense of how the national anxiety is echoing in the corridors of power. Few are willing to discuss how the Centre misread the situation and the bjp passed a resolution praising the prime minister for success in the fight against Covid. Indeed, most of them are still hesitant to find fault with the leadership and rally behind the Prime Minister’s not-so visible efforts to manage the situation. “The government is making efforts but is falling short in articulating a convincing political message,” said a bjp national office-bearer adding, “The government might need to revamp its team to deliver results”.
