Union home minister Amit Shah to arrive in Patna on July 31, J P Nadda on July 30 to address BJP's two-day event

PATNA: Union minister for home affairs Amit Shah and BJP national president J P Nadda will arrive in the state capital next week to address a two-day joint convention of the party's all seven ‘Morchas' (frontal organisations), to be held at Gyan Bhawan in Patna.
Addressing a joint press conference at the BJP office in Patna, the party’s state president Sanjay Jaiswal and its co-incharge for Bihar Harish Dwivedi on Sunday said that while Nadda would inaugurate the joint meeting of all seven Morchas on July 30, Shah will address the valedictory session on July 31.
“Nadda will reach the venue, the Gyan Bhawan inside the Samrat Ashoka Convention Kendra, after leading a roadshow from the statue of Ambedkar near the Patna high court, on the Bailey Road,” Dwivedi said adding it would be a historic moment for the Bihar BJP as the state has been selected for hosting the first-ever joint national executive meet of all seven morchas of the party. However, Shah’s address during the valedictory session on July 31 would be another important event, Jaiswal said.
Shah will be addressing the event in the state capital for the first time since the 2019 general elections. He last visited Jagdishpur in Bhojpur on April 23 this year to address an event organised on Veer Kunwar Singh Vijay Diwas. Shah also addressed an event at a private university near Sasaram on the same evening.
Other important leaders who would be attending the two-day event include all the national general secretaries of the BJP and national office-bearers of the all seven Morchas.
Around 800 party delegates would reach the state capital ahead of the two-day event, they said.
“On July 31, Nadda would listen to PM Narendra Modi’s ‘Maan Ki Baat’ programme on radio along with the party’s booth level workers in Patna Sahib area,” Jaiswal said.
The BJP state chief further informed that on the same day (July 31), Nadda would inaugurate 16 District BJP office buildings and lay foundation stones for another seven District BJP office buildings.
Jaiswal and Dwivedi further told reporters that the two-day event at the Gyan Bhawan would serve as a workshop for yet another experiment that the BJP leadership decided to undertake at its recent national executive meeting, held in Hyderabad. “It was decided at Hyderabad meet that the office-bearers of the party and its all ‘morchas’ will spend a couple of days in various parts of the country to apprise the common people of the welfare schemes undertaken by the Modi-led NDA government,” Dwivedi said.
In Bihar, the BJP leadership has identified 200 assembly constituencies where party leaders would visit, spend time with common people and discuss the centre’s welfare schemes with the masses, he said.
