For the coming elections in UP, the BJP has already made its strategy clear – that it will not put the prime minister’s image at stake. Seeing how things turned out in Bihar, Amit Shah has decided to portray UP’s prominent leader Rajnath Singh as the party’s face. The saffron party has announced six rallies so far, and it is believed that instead of Modi, these rallies will be attended by Shah and Singh. A few days ago, four MLAs from western UP went to Rajnath Singh’s residence with sweets and said, “Now you are our leader.” But Rajnath Singh could neither eat the sweets nor refuse them. An inner fear is gripping him and he’s wondering if Modi-directed Shah team is making him a scapegoat in UP.
