Former BJP activist launches Modi for PM campaign online

A former youth wing leader in New Delhi has started a campaign called ‘Modi-fying India’, aiming to project Gujarat CM Narendra Modi as the Prime Minister. Tajinder Pal Singh Bagga, convener of the Delhi-based right-wing group Bhagat Singh Kranti Sena (BSKS) has started selling T-shirts at a popular networking site and plans to launch comic books, games and a theme song.

There is a lot of fear over Modi running for the top job and that’s why we are coming out to support him with this campaign,” says Bagga. Bagga claims that the T-shirt is doing good business with orders coming in not only from Indian cities but also from US and Germany. The BSKS had earlier made headlines for its attacks on Prashant Bhushan, Arundhati Roy and Hurriyat leader Syed Ali Shah Geelani. Known to be a ’trouble-maker’, Bagga was expelled from the BJP in Delhi. Through this campaign, he may be trying to get his way back to the high command. The ‘Namo Namo’ song will officially launch the campaign and also be freely available online.
