Sources also suggest that the force, despite being hesitant about it, has been successful in getting large numbers in small duration.The police reportedly achieved the targets given to them within a week, leaving the party members behind.The BJP’s membership recruitment drive has been facing a lot of backlash from the people as the workers are using various tactics to trick people into registering for the membership.In a bizarre turn of events, the former secretary of the Mehsana Congress was made a primary member of the BJP, as mentioned in a message received on his mobile phone regarding membership registration.Despite being in power, the party’s ambitious target of enrolling two crore new members has fallen far short of expectations.Faced with challenges, the situation on the ground has made it impossible for ministers, MLAs, and MPs to meet their membership enrolment targets.Numbers emerging from many constituencies indicate that the office bearers were not able to garner as many member registrations as the number of votes they received in the last election.Currently, the membership drive is in its second phase, which will continue till October 15.
