BJP’s Biggest Weakness Is Its Dependence On PM Modi: Prashant Kishor
Mumbai: Political strategist Prashant Kishor on Tuesday said that BJP’s biggest weakness at present is the party’s dependence on Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
“PM Modi’s USP is his ability to evolve constantly. He is doing that even now. Look at how he has married his “grasp” of foreign policy with the nationalism agenda. This feeds into the voters’ psyche,” he said.
On ‘defeating’ BJP’s Hindutva narrative Prashant Kishor said, “Less than half Hindus are voting for BJP, as per data. For every Hindu who is “impressed” with the BJP’s narrative of Hindutva [and voting for them], there is one Hindu who is not…You have to appeal to the Hindus who are not convinced by the BJP’s narrative,” he added.
Commenting on BJP’s biggest opposition threat between AAP and Congress, he added, “Congress, any day.” Congress needs to learn how to be in opposition and how to behave like an Opposition party, Kishor further said.
His interaction at the Express e.Adda comes at a time when his recent decision to not join the Congress has created waves within the Indian political mainstream, giving way to speculations about his plans ahead of the 2024 Lok Sabha elections.
