In a move that has sent ripples through Coimbatore, posters in Hindi have suddenly appeared, championing the BJP and making bold promises, of connecting Coimbatore/Tirupur with Gujarat.
Coimbatore: As election fervor escalates, Coimbatore is alive with the buzz of campaigns. High-profile figures and leaders from various parties are pulling out all stops to win the hearts and votes of the constituency.
Amidst the widespread use of social media for campaigning, posters in Hindi have emerged in prominent parts of the city,seemingly a strategy by a North Indian unity forum, conveyingunabashed support for the BJP.
Casting the party's Coimbatore MP candidate, Annamalai, as the "Lion of Gujarat" and pledging an ambitious geographical union between Coimbatore/Tirupur and Gujarat if the BJP is victorious.
The posters call to break free from the Dravidian parties, positing that a vote for Annamalai is essentially a vote for Prime Minister Modi, a vote for Gujarat, and by extension, a vote for Uttar Pradesh.
This campaign, attributed to the North Indian unity forum, seems to directly target the Tamil Nadu electorate with messages of unity and promises of development.
However, this campaign strategy has stirred mixed feelings among locals. Some express concerns over potential cultural and linguistic impositions, fearing that electing a BJP MP could lead to prioritization of Hindi and North Indian interests over local concerns, thereby fueling communal discord.
The posters articulate a straightforward message: elect the "North Indian party," entrust Annamalai to carry forward Modi's vision, and witness an unprecedented connection between Coimbatore/Tirupur and Gujarat.
The posters boldly claim that with Modi's leadership, such ambitious undertakings are within reach, urging voters not to miss this "golden opportunity" to free from the clutches of the Dravidian parties.
Ending on a high note, the posters evoke nationalistic fervor with chants of "Jai Shri Ram" and "Jai Bharat Mata Ki," seeking to galvanize support for a vision of unity and progress under the BJP's banner.
