With elections due next year, the BJP has decided to strengthen the party in the state by seeking feedback from its leaders in the wake of outcome of panchayat polls and the murmurs from some sections over handling of the Covid-19 situation.
The party has also decided to prepare a strategy based on feedback received from its state leaders and ministers in the state government, strengthen its image and resolve the issues.
Many leaders had flagged issues like Covid-19 handling, disenchantment among people and lack of coordination between government and party leaders, among others.
