Nadda appoints Dilip Kumar Jaiswal as Sikkim BJP in-charge

New Delhi: Bharatiya Janata Party national president JP Nadda on Tuesday appointed Dilip Kumar Jaiswal as state in-charge of Sikkim BJP.
Earlier on September 27, BJP president J P Nadda on Tuesday held a meeting with the party's newly appointed state in-charges and discussed ways to strengthen the organisation and prepare for the 2024 general elections. During the meeting, Nadda asked the in-charges to stay connected with the workers on the ground and tell people about the Narendra Modi-led government's work done across the last 8 years, sources said.
"We were told that we need to keep visiting the state and keep highlighting the issues that concern particular state so that immediate feedback and cognizance can be taken," a source told ANI.
This was Nadda's first meeting with the party's newly appointed state in-charges. The message by saffron party leadership was very clear for the newly appointed in-charges about making sure that the party strengthens its organisational base from right the booth level onwards.
Another source told, "We were told that we need to keep visiting the state and stay connected. This will keep the party cadre morale high."

The party top leadership has asked the state in-charges to make frequent visits to the states assigned to them and that each one must maintain complete accountability.
"BJP is not a shortsighted party but a party with distinct vision and in for a long haul and therefore continuity in work in the organisation will hold the key," a source told ANI about the message from the top brass.
