BJP's national executive meeting is being held in Delhi on 16 and 17 January. The meeting will be attended by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Home Minister Amit Shah, Defense Minister Rajnath Singh, and party president JP Nadda, including all general secretaries, chief ministers of BJP-ruled states, all state presidents, and other officials. Before this two-day meeting, the BJP will also hold a mega roadshow of PM Modi in Delhi on Monday. This roadshow will run from 3 pm to 5 pm.
The second session of the meeting will begin after Modi's roadshow. This meeting is also important because just a week after the start of the meeting, the term of party president JP Nadda is coming to an end. However, there is only about a year left for the Lok Sabha elections, so there is a high possibility that Nadda may be given an extension till 2024. At the same time, according to the rules of the BJP constitution, Nadda is likely to get an extension.
Strategy not to tamper with the organization because of elections
One of the important reasons for extending the term of the party president is the elections to 9 state assemblies to be held at the end of this year. At the same time, elections are expected to be held in Jammu and Kashmir between May and June. If there is no consensus on JP Nadda's name for any reason, then Bhupendra Yadav's name is at the forefront of the race. At the same time, there is every possibility of Gujarat BJP President CR Patil getting important responsibility at the Center.
The election of the president is not possible even according to the constitution of the BJP.
Technically speaking, elections for the BJP organization could not be held in 2022, so only JP Nadda can be asked to continue in office till the Lok Sabha elections. According to the constitution of the BJP, the national president can be elected only after organization elections in at least 50% i.e. half of the states. In this context, out of 29 states of the country, in 15 states, the election of the national president of the BJP is held only after the election of the organization.
Nadda can be the third leader to become the president for the second time in a row
If Nadda gets the responsibility of the Speaker again, he could be the third leader after LK Advani and Amit Shah to get a second consecutive term. However, Rajnath Singh also became the party president twice, but his tenure was not continuous. In the graphic below, the details of the presidents since the formation of the BJP have been given.
Changes in the organization of electoral states can be approved
Assembly elections are to be held in 9 states of the country in 2023. These include big states like Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Karnataka, and Telangana. On the other hand, elections will be held in Tripura, Meghalaya, Nagaland, and Mizoram in the Northeast this year. There are full chances of elections in Jammu and Kashmir this year itself. Necessary changes can be approved in the meeting to tighten the organization of these states. Also, new faces can get a chance.
Discussion on the elections of 10 assemblies, where 93 Lok Sabha seats
After the inclusion of Jammu and Kashmir, elections to a total of 10 assemblies are likely to be held in 2023. These states account for 17% of the Lok Sabha seats. Along with this, the decision of these states spread from north to south can also give a glimpse of the mood of the public in the Lok Sabha elections to be held next year. The political math of these 10 states can be understood from the graphic given below…
Discussion on 160 Lok Sabha seats where BJP is weak
In this meeting being held before the assembly and Lok Sabha elections, the party will review the weak Lok Sabha seats. Their number is around 160. There will be a discussion on the deployment of party leaders separately on these seats and the progress report from the last meeting till this point.
G-20 summit with political-economic proposals on the agenda
In this meeting of the BJP's National Executive, along with political, and economic proposals, programs related to the G-20 conference and the participation of workers along with the party's MPs-MLAs will be discussed. Leaders like party president JP Nadda, Home Minister Amit Shah, and Defense Minister Rajnath Singh will speak on important proposals of the party, in which the road map will be told to take the schemes of the central government to the grassroots.
PM Modi's road show during the meeting on winning Gujarat
Prime Minister Narendra Modi's roadshow is proposed on the first day of this two-day meeting i.e. on Monday itself. This roadshow will be like thanking Modi on behalf of the party for the Gujarat victory. All the big leaders of the BJP will be present during the roadshow. Earlier information came that Modi would hold a road show on the last day of the meeting, but later it was shifted to the first day.
Significance of the meeting in Delhi leaving the election state
Till now speculations were rife that the BJP may hold its National Working Committee meeting in an election-bound state. Among these, the names of Madhya Pradesh and Telangana were mentioned prominently, but the party has convened a meeting of the National Executive in Delhi and made it clear that its election campaign will be decided by the central leadership.
The last working committee meeting was held in Hyderabad
The last National Executive meeting of the BJP was held in Hyderabad. However, this time too there were speculations that the BJP may hold a working committee meeting in an election-bound state. In this meeting, the preparations for the programs and activities of the organization will be discussed during the election year. Prime Minister Modi will address all the office bearers on January 17 at 4 pm. This is called the Guidance Statement. With this, the meeting will come to an end.
