Ranchi, Oct 23 BJP national president Nitin Nabin arrived here on Friday on a three-day visit to Jharkhand, during which he will attend the party’s state executive meeting and hold organisational discussions with state leaders.
This is Nabin’s second visit to the state since assuming charge as the party’s national president.
He had earlier visited for two days in June.
During his stay, Nabin will stay at his aunt’s residence and attend the inaugural session of the BJP Jharkhand State Executive meeting on October 24.
He was accorded a grand welcome at Birsa Munda Airport in Ranchi by senior party leaders, including Jharkhand BJP president Aditya Sahu, state in-charge Gajendra Singh Patel, Union Minister Sanjay Seth and Ranchi MLA C P Singh, along with hundreds of party workers.
Nabin later reached the party’s state headquarters, where he was welcomed by party workers.
He greeted them with “Jai Johar” and paid tribute to Dr Syama Prasad Mookerjee by garlanding his statue.
His visit comes after the state BJP unit was recently revamped with the appointment of new office-bearers and organisational in-charges by the party’s central leadership.
“This is the first occasion when our national president will address the state executive meeting,” the party leaders said, adding that his address will guide party office-bearers, elected representatives and workers in strengthening the organisation.
According to the BJP, Nabin will hold “crucial meetings” with the party state unit leaders in Ranchi, and he will meet all district presidents and district in-charges at Ranchi Haveli Banquet in Sukurhutu to discuss organisational matters and the party’s future roadmap in the state.
He will also address the BJP’s state executive committee meeting on Saturday, where discussions will be held on the state’s political situation and the party’s plans and priorities.
On Sunday, Nabin will participate in scheduled organisational programmes and continue his interactions with local party leaders, the BJP said.
He will also listen to PM’s ‘Mann Ki Baat’ programme at Sukurhutu on October 25, according to party leaders.
