Ever since the BJP managed to win four Lok Sabha seats in Telangana, the party has set its focus on the state. By 2023, the saffron party wants to emerge as a strong force and in fact wants to form the next government in the state.
For this, the BJP is doing all the tricks to counter and weaken the ruling TRS party and among their strategies is too declare Hyderabad as the second capital city of India. Many BJP leaders have commented pro and against this proposal.
Internally Telangana BJP leaders want Hyderabad to be made as second capital of India but they are fearing public outrage and it might put water on their efforts to get strengthened in the state.
A BJP leader has once again made comments on this issue and sparked a fresh debate. He is former Maharashtra Governor CH Vidyasagar Rao. Taking part in a book launch event, Vidyasagar Rao said, Hyderabad may become the second capital considering the pollution and livable conditions in New Delhi.
“Looking at the situation in the national capital, Dr. BR Ambedkar’s wish might turn into reality and Hyderabad would become the second capital of the country,” said Vidya Sagar Rao addressing the gathering.
However the BJP leader cleverly linked the pollution in New Delhi to the second capital issue and tried to bring up a new point in this. But this is clearly the BJP leader’s personal opinion and don’t think there will be any takers from the party.
