BJP President JP Nadda also took a review of the party’s flagship programme of Booth Jansamwad Abhiyan and asked the party cadre that they should fully concentrate on strengthening polling booths which is a key to the party’s success at hustings.

“You have to seek feedback from the beneficiaries of various Modi Government schemes like Ayushman Bharat, Gareeb Jan Kalyan, Beti Bachao Beti Padao, Ayushman Bharat, Ujwala, PM Vishwakarma Yojna, welfare schemes for farmers, Gujars, SCs, OBCs, women and downtrodden sections of the society,” he added.
