"Brings Together Energy, Grassroots Connect": PM Modi Congratulates BJP 3.0

Prime Minister Narendra Modi expressed his congratulations to the newly selected national leaders of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Monday, lauding their diverse background encompassing organizational expertise, enthusiasm, and direct engagement with local communities. The new leadership team comprises of individuals who have been entrusted with various roles within the party.

Modi conveyed his belief that these newly appointed members would contribute significantly to enhancing the party's operations and advancing its commitment to serving the public.

In subsequent posts on X, Modi conveyed his warm wishes to those leaders who have been entrusted with significant organizational duties and highlighted his confidence in their ability to bolster the party's strength and progress towards its goal of public welfare. The Prime Minister's message followed the announcement of a substantial reshuffle in the party's organizational framework, orchestrated by BJP national president Nitin Nabin. This reorganization saw several renowned leaders being given prominent positions.

Notable among the changes were the appointments of former Rajasthan Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje as a national vice president and Smriti Irani, a former Union Minister, as a national general secretary for Uttar Pradesh, a state slated for Assembly elections in 2027. The leadership lineup now includes 13 national vice presidents, with six of them being women, reflecting the party's emphasis on gender diversity.

Additionally, Vinod Tawde and Smriti Irani have been designated as national general secretaries, while Piyush Goyal has assumed the role of national treasurer.

One of the most notable adjustments is in the party's digital operations. Amit Malviya, formerly in charge of the BJP’s IT cell, has been relieved of his duties, with Deepak Mhaske being appointed to replace him. The reshuffle also entails the appointment of eight national general secretaries from seven different states, with Uttar Pradesh receiving two representatives.

Furthermore, the party has added four women to its national secretarial positions, as well as a woman general secretary. Modi emphasized that these new office bearers would be instrumental in reinforcing the BJP’s organizational foundation and effectively serving the public.
