The drive will gain momentum in western UP when BJP national president Nitin Nabin visits Meerut on Sept 21 and Saharanpur on Sept 22.
The sequence, experts said, points to a more structured exercise by BJP’s central leadership to assess party’s strengths and weaknesses region by region rather than relying only on state-level reviews. “We have completed our preparation for the party president’s visit,” said BJP Meerut district president Vivek Rastogi. He said the party organization hopes to get the desired poll traction to step up the spadework in the region. BJP’s Saharanpur district president Sheetal Vishnoi said the meeting will be crucial for mobilising the ground workers ahead of the elections.
The two-day tour will focus on reviewing booth-level readiness and engaging key social groups, especially youth, as the party looks to convert its organisational strength into electoral gains. Nabin’s West UP tour follows party’s UP incharge Vinod Tawde ’s organisational review of Gorakhpur region. Tawde is scheduled to undertake similar exercises in Awadh and Kashi in the coming days. BJP national general secretary (organisation) BL Santhosh has already reviewed Kanpur-Bundelkhand region during his recent visit to the state. The interaction is expected to provide the central leadership with direct feedback on local issues, cadre mobilisation, voter outreach and the party’s preparedness in individual constituencies. In Saharanpur, Nabin will meet the district presidents of West UP region. BJP MPs and MLAs and senior organisational functionaries will also attend the meeting.
