Monday brings high political drama to BJP’s New Delhi base, where Nitin Nabin, the party’s national general secretary, will formally enter the fray for national president. The nomination event is poised to become a national spectacle with leaders flocking from every corner of the country.
Anticipated attendees include multiple chief ministers, state presidents, Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha members, and top functionaries, all converging to project an image of unwavering unity and vigor in the lead-up to the polls.
Election protocols, as per K. Laxman’s directive, set nomination hours at 2-4 PM, followed by paper checks from 4-5 PM and a withdrawal slot ending at 6 PM. A multi-candidate scenario triggers January 20 voting and instant result declaration.
The process, governed by party bylaws, engages an expansive electoral college and demands rigorous eligibility: 20 state proposers, four terms of active service, and 15-year continuous affiliation.
Holding fort currently is JP Nadda, elevated unanimously in January 2020 after serving as working president since mid-2019. Nabin rides high on his Bihar electoral sweep in Bankipur, trouncing opponents by 51,000 votes and enhancing his organizational clout.
This development not only spotlights internal dynamics but also reaffirms BJP’s robust framework, ready to tackle upcoming national imperatives with renewed leadership focus.
