BJP actively zeroing in on probable’s for new national prez

New 
Delhi, 14 July (HS): JP Nadda's time as National President of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has ended. Although his term was extended to June 2024, he 
has already been given substantial duties inside the administration.

As a result, the BJP plans to nominate a new national president by December of this year, with the election process starting on August 1. In preparation for the election, the BJP will undertake a massive membership drive on August 1 and run until September 15. This will be followed by a robust membership drive from September 16 to September 30. The active membership verification period will run from October 1 to October 15. The BJP party constitution requires members, including the Prime Minister and party president, to renew their membership every nine years.

Mandal (local unit) presidents will be elected from November 1 to November 15, with district president elections taking place from November 16 to November 30.

According to sources within the BJP, elections for state and central council members would follow. Once they are completed, the process of picking state 
presidents will begin on December 1. After elections in 50% of states are finished, the official process of electing the national president will begin, 
guaranteeing a strong organization prepared for leadership transitions.

Notably, JP Nadda was just chosen House Leader in the Rajya Sabha. Nadda, a Rajya Sabha MP from Gujarat, also holds the Health, Chemicals, and Fertilizers portfolios in Modi's 3.0 cabinet following the 2024 Lok Sabha elections.
