Prime Minister Modi, Amit Shah and JP Nadda
The central ruling party, the Bharatiya Janata Party, will elect a new party president in the new year. Sources said the nomination for the national president of the Bharatiya Janata Party will be completed on January 15. After this, the new president of the BJP can also be announced before January 20. According to the information received, the district level elections will be completed on January 15. Thereafter, by January 17-18, 50% of the state presidents will be elected and national committee members will be appointed to conduct the presidential election.
Three days ago, Bharatiya Janata Party Chairman Nadda held an important meeting with the party general secretary in Delhi on the election of a new president. During the meeting, Nadda was informed about the ongoing election process for the post of president in the states. I believe a national seminar can be organized on December 30.
What does the constitution of the BJP say?
As per the BJP constitution, organizational elections for at least half of the state units should be completed before the process of selecting the state president begins. The term of the party’s national president is three years. However, in view of the Lok Sabha elections to be held in 2024, JP Nadda’s term was extended.
Nadda became president of the country in 2020
In February 2020, Nadda was elected as the new national chairman of the Bharatiya Janata Party. Nadda is the 11th national chairman of the party. Thereafter, even before Nadda’s term ends in January 2023, Amit Shah said that the BJP National Executive Committee has unanimously decided to extend the term of party president JP Nadda till June 2024. Since then till date, Nadda is discharging his duties as the BJP president.
Now, the new president of the BJP can come from any government or organization. It can be anyone from the state party or organization of the Bharatiya Janata Party. No names have been revealed yet. The situation on this matter may become clear in the coming days.
