BJP could not make 1 crore members in a country of 140 crores, when the target was missed then Nadda took class of big people


New Delhi: Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has fallen short of the target of making one crore members from across the country on the birth anniversary of Pandit Deendayal Upadhyay. Prime Minister Narendra Modi had launched the membership campaign in New Delhi on September 2 and the target was to connect 1 crore people to the party on September 25, the birth anniversary of Deendayal Upadhyay. Prime Minister Narendra Modi had also got his/her membership renewed. Then a target was set for every state and party workers started a vigorous membership campaign across the country. But no big state has been able to meet the target set for itself.

Big states missed, three small states crossed the target

In terms of figures, Uttar Pradesh is at the top in the membership drive, but in terms of completing the target, Tripura, Arunachal Pradesh and Himachal Pradesh have taken their turn. These are the only three states that have exceeded their respective targets. BJP national president JP Nadda is said to be angry with the lagging behind the rest of the states and some states being far away from the target. If sources are to be believed, Nadda has reprimanded Bihar BJP President Dilip Jaiswal and Deputy Chief Ministers of the state government, Samrat Chaudhary and Vijay Kumar Sinha in a meeting held in Patna. Samrat Choudhary has been the President of BJP. In July, Dilip Jaiswal was made the President of Bihar BJP in his/her place.

BJP missed the national level target

BJP sources said that till September 25, the party could create only 83 lakh new members, which is 17 lakh less than its target. September 25 was the last day of the first phase of the membership campaign. Sources said that Rajasthan and Bihar have proved to be the laggards in meeting the target. BJP is in government in both the states. In Rajasthan, the party had won 115 seats by defeating Congress in December last year. There the party has been able to add only 26 lakh members against the target of 55 lakh. Here, there is a coalition government of BJP and Nitish Kumar’s party JD(U) in Bihar. There too, BJP has lagged far behind the target of membership campaign. Bihar BJP was given a target of adding 65 lakh new members, but it could add only 32 lakh members.

Why did PM Modi take membership of BJP again, what is this 6 year rule?

Angry Nadda reprimanded a lot

Party president JP Nadda held a closed-door meeting in Patna. Sources reveal that he/she has reprimanded the Bihar BJP President and Deputy Chief Minister as well as party MLAs and MLCs. Similarly, the meeting in Rajasthan was attended by BJP’s national organization general secretary BL Santosh. he/she took on the top leadership of the state as well as every MP and MLA and expressed his/her deep displeasure over their indifferent attitude.

Uttar Pradesh is a big state and the national leadership of the party trusts the organization and the leadership of Yogi ji. That is why such an ambitious target was set for us. We are confident that in the second phase we will touch the figure of two crores.

To the leaders of Telangana

Here, in states like Telangana, where BJP is organizationally weak, only 10 lakh new members have been able to join. Angered by this poor performance, Nadda has reprimanded the state unit and given them a target of making more than 77 lakh members. he/she recently participated in BJP’s membership drive at Haritha Plaza, where he/she said that even in the worst case scenario, Telangana will have to generate 50 lakh new members. If sources are to be believed, Nadda made it clear that party posts will be decided on the basis of membership figures only. Uttar Pradesh is at first position with 1.5 crore members. However, despite being at the top, Uttar Pradesh is far from the target of two crores.

A news published on News18.com includes the statement of a BJP official. It said, ‘Uttar Pradesh is a big state and the national leadership of the party trusts the organization and leadership of Yogi ji. That is why such an ambitious target was set for us. We are confident that in the second phase we will touch the figure of two crores.

Good work by UP-MP, Assam-Gujarat also become example

At the same time, Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s home state Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh and Assam have together made 3 crore members so far. Madhya Pradesh and Gujarat are at second and third position respectively and there is very little difference between the two states. Both these states have been successful in achieving 75 percent of their target. Despite ranking first, Uttar Pradesh has been able to achieve only about 65 percent of its target. Himanta Biswa Sarma, the popular face of BJP in the Northeast, ensured enrollment of 50 lakh members against the target of 65 lakh.

Only these states achieved the target

Whereas, among smaller states, Tripura, Arunachal Pradesh and Himachal Pradesh have exceeded the expectations. Of these, Himachal Pradesh is the only Congress-ruled state where early signs of anti-incumbency are visible. Keep in mind that Himachal’s ruling party Congress had boycotted the Ram Temple inauguration ceremony in Ayodhya. Recently, prominent party leader Rahul Gandhi has made remarks like ‘dancing and singing’ in the life consecration ceremony, which is being heavily criticized.
