New Delhi/IBNS: Nitin Nabin has officially assumed charge as the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) national president, becoming the youngest leader to head the country’s ruling party.

Nabin, 45, succeeds Union Minister Jagat Prakash Nadda, who took charge as BJP chief in 2020.

The new president was congratulated by senior BJP leaders, including Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, Union Home Minister Amit Shah, and others during a grand ceremony at BJP headquarters.

Addressing party workers, PM Modi said, “When it comes to party matters, I am a worker and Nitin Nabin-ji is my boss. Now Nitin Nabin-ji is the president of all of us, and his responsibility is not just to manage the BJP, but also to ensure coordination among all NDA allies.”
