BJP resorts to ‘food diplomacy’ to woo North Indians

- 02 Sep 2016
In a bid to garner the huge votebank of the North Indians for the upcoming BMC Elections 2017, the BJP Mumbai unit has organised a public dinner with a traditional menu at suburban Goregaon tonight which will be attended by Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis.
“We are elated to announce that our chief minister would be having quality time with the people of North India over ‘Baati-Chokha’ wherein he would interact with the intellectuals as well as commoners invited from all walks of life,” BJP city unit president Ashish Shelar said on Thursday. He said Fadnavis will be first such CM who wanted to connect with commoners over a dinner with their traditional food.
Mumbai BJP general secretary Amarjeet Mishra, who often organises such functions for North Indians, said, “the work that chief minister of Uttar Pradesh didn’t and couldn’t do here in Mumbai (to connect with the North Indians), is being done by Devendraji.”
Mishra, who recently organised a music festival dedicated to ‘Kajri’ form of singing which is popular in Northern belt, said, “Our CM is connecting with North Indians very fast and this was very much visible when he instantly donned ‘gamachha’ during a programme when he came to know that it was a typical a traditional cotton towel used in North India.
