According to a party leader, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in Odisha will be appointing a new president in January of next year. The party has already kicked off its internal elections in the state, with approximately 40,000 booth committees already established, as stated by the state in-charge Vijaypal Singh Tomar on Thursday.
Tomar explained that the election for the state BJP chief will take place after the district-level polls. Currently, the party's Mandal elections are in progress and will be followed by the district-level polls. The election for the party president is scheduled for the first week of January, he added. It is worth mentioning that the BJP is a democratic party, and the state president will be elected through a democratic process, Tomar emphasized.
He also made it clear that any ordinary party worker has the potential to become the president. This further highlights the party's democratic values and principles. The current Odisha BJP president, Manmohan Samal, took over the position from Samir Mohanty in 2023. He is credited for the party's remarkable performance in the 2024 elections, which led to the formation of the party's first government in the state. The BJP secured a whopping 78 seats out of 147 in the state assembly and also dominated the Lok Sabha elections by winning 20 out of 21 seats in the state.
In conclusion, it is evident that the BJP is committed to maintaining a fair and democratic process in selecting its leaders. With the upcoming election for the state president, the party continues to uphold its values and is open to giving opportunities to any deserving party worker. This not only reflects the party's inclusive approach but also reinforces its strong presence in the state of Odisha.
