'Committed to winning': BJP kickstarts 2-day executive meet with eye on elections in 9 states
New Delhi/IBNS: The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) kickstarted a grand two-day strategy session Monday with an eye on the coming elections in nine states this year, which would be seen as the semi-final to the Lok Sabha polls in 2024.
The session was attended by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who earlier held a mega roadshow in Delhi.
Speaking to the media in the evening, senior party leader Ravi Shankar Prasad said the BJP is "committed to winning" the coming elections.
"The focus now is on strengthening the party at the booth level," Prasad said.
Besides the Prime Minister, 35 Union Ministers, 12 Chief Ministers, and 37 regional heads are attending the two-day national executive meeting.
Around 350 party workers are also expected to attend.
Prasad said India has pulled ahead in several areas including the manufacturing of cars and cell phones.
"India has become the fifth largest economy in the world surpassing even England. It is the second biggest mobile manufacturer. From importing cellphones in 2013-14, we are now exporting cellphones made here," he said.
