Prime Minister Narendra Modi will Monday launch the Bharatiya Janata Party's gigantic membership drive. He gets from BJP President J P Nadda the certificate of the first member this evening.
This massive organisational exercise of the party has been named as 'Sangathan Parv – Sadasyata Abhiyaan 2004'.
PM Modi would be choosing the option of missed call out of various modes that are available for gaining party membership. Several of its senior party leaders will subsequently take the party membership, a process which will kick-start the massive organisational exercise to be carried out for the next two months.
BJP, the world's biggest party, also initiated a phone number-8800002024. A missed call on this number would enable the leaders, workers, and volunteers to become a party member. NaMo App is another route via which leaders and workers can attain a party membership and renew their association with the party.
Significantly, BJP National Secretary Vinod Tawre, days ago in a Press conference explained the rationale behind BJP's membership drive that is undertaken after every five-six years.
'As part of the drive, all existing members of the party also have to renew their membership,' the senior BJP leader had informed.
Sharing details of the phase-wise drive, Vinod Tawde had told the Press that the first phase would run from September 2 to September 25 while the second phase would begin after a week-long gap and end on October 15.
He also gave a lowdown on how the BJP became the world's largest party in 2014 by beating China's Communist Party and mentioned Covid constraints that reportedly was the reason behind the truncated drive in 2019.
BJP also claimed that the party had crossed the 11 crore mark during Amit Shah's tenure as party president. The truncated drive in 2019 saw over 7 crore people take part in the party's membership.
Meanwhile, Uttar Pradesh CM Yogi Adityanath has called upon the BJP workers to make this mega drive a huge success. He termed it a movement to bind the citizens in one common spirit of 'Nation First'.
In a tweet to X, CM Yogi wrote, "The membership drive of Bharatiya Janata Party which begins today is a movement to connect the individual with the spirit of Nation First, the resolve to serve the people, the vow of Antyodaya and the vision of Developed India - Self-reliant India."
He also urged BJP workers to ensure that the drive reaches every household and every family, leaving no one behind.
"Let all of us workers of BJP make this national task successful with full energy and commitment by assimilating the mantra that was given by respected Prime Minister Narendra Modi: 'Sabka Sath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas and Sabka Prayas'. Be careful that no house is left, no person is left, no class is left. Long live Mother India!," he further wrote on X.
