JP Nadda, national president of the Bharatiya Janata Party, will preside over a meeting of the party’s national general secretaries at the party headquarters on Wednesday evening to discuss the agenda for analysing and preparing for the upcoming elections. According to sources familiar with the details, this meeting will be used to review the party’s work over the last few months.
“The party is likely to review the progress of the ongoing programmes like the Lok Sabha Pravas where leaders are touring across the country focussing on the weak Lok Sabha seats identified by the party. BJP general secretary, Vinod Tawde is the convenor of this committee for the Lok Sabha Pravas,” sources said.
It is worth noting that ‘weak Lok Sabha’ seats refer to a survey in which the Bharatiya Janata Party identified 160 Lok Sabha seats where it did not perform well in the 2019 elections. Karnataka, Chhattisgarh, Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Telangana, and Mizoram are among the states that will hold Assembly elections.
The party will also assess the impact on the ground of the large-scale effort to bring the Union Budget to the public.
“One of the big focuses of today’s meeting will be to analyse and prepare further for the upcoming elections. The state of Karnataka will go for assembly polls soon and the party will be focusing on winning that election,” sources said.
This meeting will be attended by BJP general secretary organisation, BL Santhosh, as well as the general secretaries, in addition to JP Nadda. Vinod Tawde, Dilip Saikia, Sunil Bansal, D Purandeshwari, Kailash Vijayvargiya, CT Ravi, Tarun Chugh, Dushyant Gautam, and Arun Singh are the BJP’s current general secretaries.
