Shiv Sena is moving ahead with times and in a first, the saffron party has roped in a ‘mind trainer’ and motivational speaker to give lectures to its party workers including ticket aspirants.
 
According to Sena functionaries, Sandeep Chonkar was roped in because speeches from the party leaders was becoming repetitive and less effective and speeches by a professional motivational speaker like Sandeep Chonkar, will only encourage and boost the morale of its cadre.
 
Chonkar, author of a Marathi book titled ‘Vichar badla, Jag badlel’ (Change your thinking, the world will change), has addressed more than 10 such meetings of Sena activists since last month. Some of the areas where his motivational speeches were held include, Colaba, Mumbadevi, Byculla, Worli, Sewri and Bhandup.
 
From team work, attire and behaviour to lessons on how to maintain unity among party workers during the stressful time of the polls, the topics selected for a two-hour-long session are focused on the coming elections to BMC.
 
“If party activists reach people while chewing paan or smoking cigarettes, people will perceive the party or candidate wrongly and may not vote for the party. Besides dressing properly, the party workers were also asked not to use abusive language,” said a functionary who organised one of these events.
 
 

While many sessions have been organised in the parts of South Mumbai, more such sessions will be organised in the eastern suburbs in coming days. “We had organised one session in one of our shakhas last month. But we plan to organise more such sessions in coming days,” said Datta Dalvi, former mayor and Sena Vibhag Pramukh from Bhandup.
