New Delhi: Recently offended by a teacher’s request to sing a song for her, Bhojpuri-actor-turned-politician Manoj Tiwari has lent his voice to BJP’s campaign song for the upcoming civic elections in the city. After hectic campaigning, Delhi BJP president Mr Tiwari had to spend an entire night to get the song recorded for the civic polls.

The song’s focus is on “Bhajpa Dil main, Bhajpa Dilli main” (BJP in our hearts, BJP in Delhi). Mr Tiwari has not only sung the song, but has composed its music as well. The saffron party is now planning to use the song as the caller tune for all its workers and dedicated party sympathisers in the city.

Mr Tiwari has written and composed the song with assistance from his team, including Neelkant Bakshi and Kumar Vishu. During the launch of the campaign song, Mr Tiwari said that he spent last night at a studio in East Delhi and recorded the song overnight.

The campaign song, slogan, and BJP poster for the civic polls were unveiled at a function attended by several party leaders, including national vice-president Vinay Sahasrabuddhe. In the four-minute campaign song, ‘Bhajpa Dil main, Bhajpa Dilli main,’ Mr Tiwari also lashes out at the Arvind Kejriwal government without naming it for making false promises to the people and alleged corruption of its ministers.

The song also includes catchwords and promises of the party like installation of LED and CCTV cameras, clean roads, water supply to each household, welfare of farmers, nationalism, and eradication of corruption. It also has a short, crisp line from Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s speech, ‘my government is dedicated to poor.’

BJP’s campaign slogan “Naye Chehre, Nayi Urja, Nayi Udan; Dilli Mange Kamal Nishan,” will be used widely as it promises ‘fresh faces’ in the three municipal corporations.  

“There is a lot of negativity in the atmosphere and Delhiites are being misguided by the Delhi government. So, we thought of a different strategy. We are starting our campaign at a positive note. We will go door to door and convince people to come out of negativity and contribute for the development of the city under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi,” added Mr Tiwari.
