BJP chief holds strategy meet for next round of Assembly polls

BJP President Nitin Nabin convened a strategic meeting on August 23, 2026, with party office-bearers to deliberate on organizational strategies for upcoming Assembly elections in India, particularly in states such as Uttar Pradesh, Gujarat, Punjab, Uttarakhand, Goa, and Himachal Pradesh. The meeting, held at the BJP headquarters, saw participation from newly-appointed office-bearers, presidents of State units, and other key functionaries.

BJP National General Secretary B.L. Santhosh was also present. While the BJP currently governs five of the poll-bound states, it faces challenges in Punjab and Himachal Pradesh, where the Aam Aadmi Party and Congress respectively hold power. This meeting aimed to reinforce grassroots outreach and youth engagement, especially in the upcoming election year of 2027.

BJP National Secretary B.L. Santhosh also attended the meeting, where organizational matters were discussed in depth. The BJP has previously condemned the Congress for limiting the recitation of Vande Mataram to two stanzas, and resolved to launch a nationwide campaign to protect and promote the full version of the national song.
