New Delhi, April 1: With its past efforts to woo Muslims not yielding 100 per cent results, the Bharatiya Janata Party is organising a three-day national executive of the BJP’s minority wing. With the Assembly elections and general elections lined up, the event is being seen as "let there be a new beginning" by the saffron party which is trying hard to present itself as a "minority friendly" party.

The event will be held in Hyderabad from April 4 and is likely to promise welfare schemes for them if the NDA comes to power.

BJP minority cell president Shahnawaz Hussain said that the party will appeal to Muslims to "let us make a new beginning under Advani’s leadership".

The political resolution to be adopted at the conclave will reach out to minorities, especially Muslims, asking them to forget the misunderstandings of the past and project the BJP’s prime ministerial face, Mr L.K. Advani, as a friendly leader. The party is also planning minority rallies across the country in the coming days in an attempt to reach out to the minority communities.

The political resolution will also seek to blame the Congress for the plight of Muslims in the country as brought out by the report of the Sachar Committee. The event will also see discussion on the candidature of more Muslim candidates by the party.

"If Muslims are poor, unemployed and backward today, it is because of the Congress which has ruled this country for majority of the years. It has done nothing for the uplift of Muslims," said Mr Hussain.
