The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) started a big membership drive in Jharkhand on Sunday. Babulal Marandi, the BJP leader in Jharkhand, opened the drive in Khoron village, Giridih district. Marandi shared on social media that many people signed up to join the party during a special workshop held there.
The membership drive is happening in over 5,600 places across the state. The BJP aims to add around 60 lakh new members since they got more than 59 lakh votes in the recent assembly elections. BJP workers will visit villages and neighborhoods to encourage more people to join the party.
Senior BJP leader Amar Kumar Bauri noted that supporters can also sign up online through a website link or call a toll-free number. After this initial drive, a more active membership campaign will occur from January 2 to January 15. Following this, the party will set up booth-level committees from February 1 to February 10, create Mandal committees from February 20 to February 25, and finalize district committees by the end of February.
The BJP launched this nationwide membership drive on September 2 but paused it in some states, including Jharkhand, during elections.
