Setting a date with the State  BJP readying to take on Cong

Early days yet but this has not stopped the BJP from putting its foot forward for the Assembly election scheduled in the early part of next year. It is along this line that BJP National president Amit Shah has set a date with the State sometime in September to chalk out the poll strategy ahead of the Assembly election. Nothing surprising here, for if there is a party that can dislodge the Congress here, then it is obviously the BJP which is best placed to do that. After the BJP swept the Lok Sabha election in 2014 and with Narendra Modi riding a wave, the party has been going from strength to strength sweeping aside the Congress. The only set back it faced was the Delhi Assembly election when the AAP romped home comfortably. Making things uneasy for the Congress here will obviously be the manner in which the BJP swept aside the Congress in Assam making it the first North East State to have a BJP Government. Himanta Kumar Biswa may have said that there will be no pre-poll arrangement with the Naga People’s Front for the Assembly election here in 2017, but this does not negate the possibility of the two parties coming to some sort of an understanding. Remember how NPF leaders from Nagaland campaigned for the BJP in the run up to the Assembly election in Assam.
