Former film hero Sivaji is well known across the State. Compared to politicians, people do not forget the name of film heroes that easily. That is why we find many film heroes in politics in the country right from Kashmir to Kanyakumari. Sivaji joined BJP in 2014. At that time, the reason for him joining the BJP was that he did not cherish the way the Andhra Pradesh was divided. In fact, he is allegedly struggling for existence in the BJP. Since joining the party, he more or less remained dormant in the party.Also, the party did not recognize his services, if any. Meanwhile, he trained his guns on the BJP leadership.
What transpired between him and the party leadership was not known. Now and then he comes down heavily on the Center raking up the special status to the AP issue. He did not spare even the BJP old guards from his criticism alleging injustice to the State on the special Status issue. Minister in the State Cabinet Manikyala Rao recently breathed fire on Sivaji as the latter had directed his ire on BJP leader Somu Veerraju. In spite of that, Sivaji did not relent from targeting a party worker here and a leader there. The BJP leaders are not able to do anything in Sivaji’s case.
Since Sivaji is not holding any party post, suspending him from the party is ruled out. Moreover, he is challenging the party to take action against him. Moreover, he claims to be a party activist. The BJP leaders in Vijayawada are finding themselves at their wits end in dealing with Sivaji. The party is not able to turn a blind eye towards Sivaji since his actions are provocative. He is provoking the leadership organizing discussions with people’s organizations on the issue. Even the top leadership of the State party appears to be not able to provide suitable solution on how to deal with Sivaji. Sivaji became a stone in BJP’s throat.
