Party workers deployed in the war rooms of the BJP’s State unit are working overtime to gather information and disseminate messages to the target audience in anticipation of the Lok Sabha polls slated to be held in the national capital on May 25.
With a little over two weeks to go for Lok Sabha polls in Delhi, those in the war rooms of the BJP’s state unit are working hard to secure a win in each of the seven Lok Sabha constituencies in Delhi. The war room has been set up in all the parliamentary constituencies which operates in two shifts manned by around eight people.
The centres start operations at 10 am every day to ensure timely execution of scheduled plans and programmes of the party, said a BJP leader involved in the activities. “In fact, these war rooms-cum-call centres were fully operational since September last year but now they are running at full steam with an enhanced need for dissemination of messages among party leaders and workers as well as gathering feedback from the public,” said the BJP leader.
The basic work of these war rooms involves gathering feedback from voters, and circulating messages related to the BJP leaders’ programmes and other information, he said.
“Preparations related to polling at the booth level and taking stock of preparations for the different stages of elections are also carried out through these centres,” he said, adding that these war rooms also send out messages to party leaders and workers.”We are sometimes tasked with reaching out to specified groups of workers to pass on information meant for them,” said a member of one of the war rooms in Delhi. The saffron party won all seven seats with huge margins in the 2014 and 2019 parliamentary polls.
The party is pitted against the opposition INDIA bloc partners AAP and Congress, contesting on four and three seats, respectively.
Similar arrangements have also been made in all the Lok Sabha constituencies in the country where around 30,000 personnel are deputed to run the centres, which are run according to the instructions and guidelines laid down by senior national and state leadership.
