Minister of Home Affairs Minister of Union Amit Shah in May with K.A. Paul, a former evangelist who sang the world became a politician with several influences in the Christian community in Telugu countries Andhra Pradesh and Telangana, making many people in the curious southern political circle. Then, in July, Paul also met Parshottam Rugala, Minister of Fisheries and Animal Animal Husbandry.
Ruars, however, then said that his visit was only a polite call, it raised eyebrows.Paul’s team told The Print that earlier this week, Shah even offered government security to the Telugu politician after he claimed there was a threat to his life. A Christian preacher, Paul, in a mold conversation, claimed to have interacted with Prime Minister Narendra Modi several times by telephone, plus a picture from 2016 on Paul’s Facebook page, he was seen shaking Modi’s hands.
So who is K. Paul and why does BJP appear to be interested in him?
Killari Anand Paul from Andhra Pradesh is a global evangelist who claims to have visited several countries with war and advising world leaders. The 58 -year -old player has a Boeing 747 aircraft and has done a ‘peace tour’ in more than one hundred 100 countries, he told the printing.According to the Paul team, he also heads two independent organizations based in the US-Global Peace Initiative and the Gospel for millions of people who have not been reached, with the last focus on the granting of Christian Gospels.
In an interview with the telugu channel in May, Paul claimed to have met with US President Joe Biden in February to discuss the Russian-Ukraine war conflict. In the interview, he also said that he had a wealth of $ 100 trillion and that he had funded political parties on many occasions, including agitation for the State of Telangana which was separated by Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS). He founded the Praja Shanti Party in 2008 and, together with several PSP candidates, competed for the 2019 Andhra Pradesh Assembly election, but failed to win one seat.
“Amit Shah might give Paul audience because he might have described himself as a strong leader of a particular community,” said Ramchander Rao, BJP leader and former Telangana Legislative Council member for printing. “Shah personally watched all operations in Telangana where BJP aggressively wanted to build itself. Politically, in Telangana and Andhra, he is not very important. “
Speaking to The Print, Paul said he told Shah that the Praja Shanti Party candidate would fight in the upcoming assembly elections and Lok Sabha in Telangana. “Why only BJP? The Praja Shanti Party also wants to emerge as a rigid opposition to KCR (Chairperson of the Minister of Telangana K. Chandrashekar Rao). I also told them how serious I was about participating, especially the Sabha Lok Sabha, and not only in Telangana but also in Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, Northeast and Kerala, among others. Both Shah and Ruars Ji agreed that I had to fight, “Paul said.
According to a senior political analyst, Ravi, Paul was used as a “pawn” by BJP. “Paul has a lot of funds, money. And BJP always tries to push the periphery elements – both from any community. That is their strategy. It seems that they use it as a pawn and this meeting is just a transfer technique to confuse people. Politically, I don’t think this means anything, “Ravi told the mold.
Bringer of faith?
In a conversation with The Print, Paul said that his relationship with Shah and Ruars came from the time when they were in Gujarat. He has helped the country with “funds” during the 2001 Gujarat earthquake and he, since then, has been in touch with Shah and several other BJP leaders. Paul added that his new meeting with Shah also involved a discussion about “regulating funds”. Born in the village of Chittivalasa Andhra, Paul said his journey could be called ‘Boggulanundi Boeing Varaku’ – translated loosely, that means ‘from coal to Boeing’, signaling years from early years which is financially difficult. He shot for famous, he said, around the late 1980s.
His popularity as evangelists, especially two decades ago, was so large that there was a parallel that was drawn between him and the legendary American evangelical preacher Billy Graham.
Besides being reported to be in the Council of Advisory Advisory Iman Donald Trump, before he became president, Paul, for many years, had been photographed with Trump Melania Trump’s wife and his daughter Ivanka Trump during a campaign meeting in 2016, Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his predecessor Manmohan Singh, and met former PMistan PM Benazir Bhutto, Sudan President Omar Al-Bashir and 39th US President Jimmy Carter.
Paul Long Claim List. According to him, he convinced Trump not to make a strong decision about Indian immigrant students, asking PM Modi not to continue the surgery strike, and spoke with former Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan about the release of Indian air wing commander Abhinandan and Vanthaman in Pakistan in Pakistan, Abhinandan Vanthaman yang berada di Pakistan di Pakistan di Pakistan, Abhinandan Vanthaman yang berada di Pakistan di Pakistan di Pakistan, Abhinandan Vanthaman yang berada di Pakistan di Pakistan di Pakistan, Abhinandan Vanthaman yang berada di Pakistan di Pakistan, Abhinandan Vanthaman yang berada di Pakistan di Pakistan Air Army detention for a short period after a clash between state troops in 2019.

Paul’s latest claim, in a video released on social media, is that he also asked Russian President Vladimir Putin to stop the attack on Ukraine. In an emotional video, he said that he had talked to Putin by telephone about the same thing. Ruars, in a letter to the Nobel Peace Prize Committee, accessed by The Print, in 2021 had nominated Paul for peace prizes. Evangers claim he has been nominated seven times for honor.
‘Part of Mission South’
Back in Telugu countries, Paul is always surrounded brutally on social media with hundreds of online videos mocking many of his claims. Although their political parties are considered unimportant by political experts, they say that whatever is supported by a little from his party, mostly from the Christian community. Paul is associated with several Christian organizations in Telugu countries and also related to many priests.
“Amit Shah meets people from various sectors to take feedback about Telangana because BJP is very serious about the next election in the state. Paul is a prominent person who represents the Christian community so that it may not be politically, but in terms of society he is a key figure. This is all part of the strategy and if BJP wants to be in power, we must consult with all kinds of people, “a BJP leader told The Print on anonymity conditions.
BJP has focused on the telangana after a series of victories against Telangana Rashra Samithi who was in power, starting with Dubbaka Bypoll in 2020. BJP, last month, also held a meeting of the National Executive Committee at Hyderabad in an attempt for how serious the party was about ‘mission South’ with the main focus on Telangana.
“KTR (K. T. Rama Rao, Putra CMR and Minister of IT) had been asked who the main opposition of their parties in the state was and he mocked K.A. Paul, in an effort to underestimate BJP and other parties. So, BJP has met the main opposition of KTR, “said another BJP leader by joking, adding that Shah meets everyone who is possible from the same enemy country is KCR.
