PM Modi unhappy with Telangana BJP MPs, says party falling behind Owaisi
Hyderabad: Prime Minister Narendra Modi has reportedly expressed displeasure over the functioning of Telangana BJP MPs, especially their weak digital presence compared to AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi, The Siasat Daily reported.
According to the reports, Modi shared these concerns during an informal breakfast meeting with MPs from Telangana, Andhra Pradesh and the Andaman & Nicobar Islands at Parliament House on Thursday morning. He reviewed the political situation in these regions and advised MPs on how they should conduct themselves both inside and outside Parliament. Sources said the Prime Minister spent nearly half an hour interacting with the group.
Focusing on Telangana, Modi reportedly pointed out that the BJP was “lagging behind” Owaisi and his party in terms of online reach and digital influence. Eenadu reported that Modi even pulled up the MPs for “not fulfilling their role as a strong opposition force in the state.”

He is said to have questioned why the party had not built an effective communication and digital network capable of countering both the ruling party and opposition groups. Modi reportedly expressed disappointment that the party had not made use of the political opportunities available in Telangana “despite the potential for the BJP to grow in the state,” The Siasat Daily said.
The Prime Minister also advised MPs from Telugu-speaking states to stay more visible on national issues and travel widely to convey the central government's development work and policies to the public.
Mahbubnagar MP D. K. Aruna later said that Modi urged BJP parliamentarians to work collectively, take the party’s message to the people and strengthen its presence at the grassroots level in Telangana.
