Is it wise to welcome Chiranjeevi into BJP?

If reports are to be believed, Chiranjeevi is likely to quit Congress party and join BJP. The reason is party vice-president Rahul Gandhi scolded him for concentrating his attention on his 150 movie while leaving the party in the state to its fate. However, Chiranjeevi has not spelled his mind until now about changing the party. Media may be guiding him into BJP.

But, BJP Telangana state President Kishan Reddy swiftly reacts to the media reports. He said “BJP will welcome him if he is really keen to join us. A person of his caliber would be an asset for any party. If he joins us our party will become stronger and we can utilize his services for our party.”

Whether or not the media reports are genuine, if Chiranjeevi is planning to leave his party he would be betraying it that gives him a new life and great honor in the politics. He enjoyed and stick to it as long as it was in power and distances from it when its situation turns miserable. He is focusing his full attention on his 150th movie while his party is struggling to stay afloat in the state.

Actually, this is the time that he should focus his full attention on his party and put hard and sincere efforts to save it. His tremendous influence would do miracles for the party, if he is really keen to use it for it. But, being a self-centered person, Chiranjeevi thinks about his own future and returns to film industry. Hence, he need not to be upset if Rahul Gandhi reminds his duties. But, if reports are to be believed he took it as a nice excuse to jump out of the sinking Congress ship.

If, Kishan Reddy sees nothing wrong in his attitude, certainly he can roll out red carpet for Chiranjeevi, but should not expect him to be grateful to the party or his services to the party.
