Where is the opposition to Modi in Vizag?

Prime Minister Narendra Modi sure knows how to mould public opinion. That he is a past master in turning people around. He has demonstrated his ability to influence the people and win the battle of narrative. Contrary to the belief that there would be major opposition to his visit to Vizag, the parties are falling head over heels to welcome him.

The YSRCP, which has invited Modi to Vizag, is leaving no stone unturned to ensure that Modi's visit to Vizag is a success. The party is mobilizing crowds in a big way. It is also using its cadre to ensure a massive turnout. It has filed the Vizag skyline with banners, festoons, posters and floral arches all along the route of the PM.

Joining the YSRCP is the BJP. The BJP's Saffron-Green flags are all over the place and the party is mobilizing the crowds in a big way. The BJP sees this visit as an opportunity to resurrect itself. The Jana Sena too is in a welcome mood. After the Pawa-Modi meet, the party cadres have put up enthusiastic welcome banners all along the route.

All this has left the TDP in a confused mood. The TDP can neither oppose nor welcome Modi. It wants Modi and the BJP to be on their side in the 2024 elections. As a result, the TDP can ill afford to oppose Modi. At the same time, It cannot openly welcome as the BJP has been very cold to the TDP overtures. As a result, except for the Left parties, there is no one to oppose Modi. The left and its supporters are preparing to register feeble protests.
