The Odisha BJP is set to hold its first executive committee meeting in Puri from July 19, marking a significant event following the formation of its government in the state. BJP’s national president, J P Nadda, will be in attendance, according to a party official.

Initially, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh was also expected to join the two-day meeting; however, he will be unable to attend due to health issues, as confirmed by Odisha BJP president Manmohan Samal.

“Rajnath Singh was scheduled to be part of the meeting, but due to his unavailability, BJP president JP Nadda will lead the event starting on July 19,” Samal informed reporters.

The executive committee meeting is anticipated to discuss key strategies and plans for the party’s future initiatives in Odisha, focusing on consolidating its position and addressing local issues. The presence of J P Nadda underscores the importance of the meeting as the party aims to strengthen its organizational framework and outreach in the state.

With the executive committee’s formation and the leadership of national figures, the Odisha BJP is poised to take significant steps in its political agenda. The meeting will provide a platform for party leaders to strategize and align their efforts toward achieving their goals in the region.
