Bedi likely to be BJP's CM candidate: Why Saffron party outshined AAP in electroal strategies
At a time when political experts had started writing off for BJP in Delhi Assembly polls, the Saffron party played a master card. After sniffing the looming defeat in the State poll, mainly because of couple of factors including lack of a credible party face and the spill over effect of the Central Government, the BJP brought former team Anna member Kiran Bedi in the team.
It looks like this time Modi party doesn't want to leave any stone unturned as they fell short of four seats in the 70 member Assembly in 2013. Read more- Woman power in Delhi polls: After Bedi, Amar Singh's protege Jaya Prada likely to join BJP
BJP knows that AAP is the only competitor which can wobble its way to move into driver's seat in the Delhi election. So, the Saffron party is toying with all the permutations and combinations to outshine the rival party.
Reportedly, in coming days more women power will be added to the party which will help it in giving impression that BJP is the only women friendly party amongst all (AAP, Congress).
Here is the analysis on how Bedi will lift the sagging morale of BJP.
AAP
will
find
it
tough
to
counterattack
Bedi
Aam
Aadmi
Party
will
really
find
it
tough
to
deal
with
Kiran
Bedi
who
has
turned
the
table
to
Arvind
Kejriwal
now.
India's
first
woman
police
officer
Bedi,
and
Kejriwal
were
once
partners
in
social
activist
Anna
Hazare's
anti-corruption
campaign
which
shook
India
in
2011.
Bedi and Kejriwal later fell out because of differences on a number of issues.
Now as Bedi has joined the Modi brigade and has given upper hand to BJP, it will be really interesting to watch how Kejriwal will deal with his former acolyte. Experts say that because of a psychological barrier as Bedi was once a part of their crusade against corruption, Kejriwal will not be able to up the ante against her.
BJP will project anti-corruption image of party through IPS officer
Kiran Bedi is known for her multiple avatar including celebrated former IPS officer , Magsaysay award Winner, Asian lawn tennis champion and well acclaimed activist.
Her image is of an upright, honest officer who can wrangle even with big politicians for the sake of her duty. As young officer of the traffic police, she had once ordered to tow away former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi's car as it was parked illegally.
Since then she was given the nick name of 'crane' Bedi who never tolerates indiscipline and violation of law and order.
Giving
larger
message
to
the
Delhi
voters,
Bedi
yesterday
said
that
she
knows
both,
how
to
do
work
and
how
to
get
it
done.
BJP
may
project
this
image
of
Bedi
to
cobble
up
people's
support
in
one
of
the
most
competitive
assembly
election.
Women
power
will
bring
voters
to
BJP's
kitty
With
three
women
celebrity
(Jaya
Prada,
Bedi,
Ilmi)
in
the
party,
it
seems
that
BJP
is
in
a
mood
to
cash
on
the
women
power
in
the
most
competitive
poll
in
Delhi.
It
is
being
believed
that
party
wants
to
use
Bedi's
experience
in
police
force.
The saffron party may give a loud and clear message to the people that party is very serious with deteriorating law and order situation in Delhi.
If party will be elected in the election, it will provide better security for women folks who are presently at the receiving end in the capital. Party may hint that being a woman herself, Bedi will understand woman's plight and agony.
Credible face for Delhi BJP
At
a
time
when
BJP
leadership
was
in
complete
disarray
in
the
capital,
BJP
got
a
face
in
the
form
of
Bedi.
Because
of
the
reason
that
party
had
no
'vote
pulling'
face
in
Delhi
with
whom
people
could
associate,
Modi
had
to
take
the
reins
in
his
hands.
It
is
expected
that
now,
Bedi
who
will
possibly
be
declared
as
CM
candidate
will
fill
that
gap.
Though
some
of
the
top
leaders
may
oppose
this
decision
of
the
party,
but
that
will
be
limited
to
mute
murmurs
only.
These
leaders
know
that
when
Modi
gives
his
assent
to
anything
and
it
is
also
subscribed
by
the
master
strategist
Amit
Shah,
then
there
is
no
scope
of
this
whimpering
business.
Modi+Bedi combo
Bedi is known for her soft corner for Prime Minister Narendra Modi. She has been praising Modi ever since she had left Anna Hazare's membership.
Now,
it
is
being
believed
that
Bedi
can
claim
that
if
we
will
be
voted
to
power
there
will
be
more
coherence
between
Delhi
and
central
government.
We
will
be
able
to
implement
things
in
a
better
way
as
Modi
government
will
support
in
every
possible
way.
BJP
will
project
Modi-Bedi
combo
to
woo
people
of
Delhi
in
party's
favour.
Though, only time will tell whether BJP will be given full mandate or not, but one thing is crystal clear that party has defeated AAP in it's own game. Kiran Bedi's inclusion in BJP will definitely prove to be a game-changer for the Saffron party in coming days.
