PM, Shah, Nadda hold crucial meeting

The BJP chief's participation in the meeting led to speculation about changes in the government and BJP organisation, including at the state-level, as the party gears up for key Assembly elections due later this year and the 2024 Lok Sabha polls.
For the past few days, Shah, Nadda and BJP general secretary (organisation) B L Santosh have held several rounds of deliberations on organisational and political issues. Elections are due in Rajasthan, Chhattisgarh, Madhya Pradesh, Telangana and Mizoram later this year.
