BJP to hold ‘Seva Pakhwada’ from Sept 17 to mark PM Modi’s 25 years in office

The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is set to launch a service campaign, 'Seva Pakhwada', from September 17 to October 2, commemorating Prime Minister Narendra Modi's 25 years in public office, officials disclosed. The announcement was made at the inaugural meeting of the party's new national team, led by president Nitin Nabin, on Saturday.

This initiative will encompass a range of public service and welfare activities, including sanitation drives, blood donation camps, and health camps, in addition to highlighting the welfare measures and schemes implemented during Modi's tenure. The BJP national general secretary Vinod Tawde will preside over a seven-member team tasked with devising the campaign plan.

State-level teams, comprising a minister, an organizational general secretary, and five senior leaders, will be formed to oversee the events. The party plans to organize intellectual conferences and seminars focused on good governance, development, and 'Antyodaya' (empowerment of the underprivileged), as well as interactive sessions with the youth.

An influential team, including Nabin, Tawde, Smriti Irani, Gujarat minister Harsh Sanghavi, Chhattisgarh minister OP Choudhary, and others, will spearhead the Gen Z outreach efforts.
