BJP National President Nitin Nabin to visit West Bengal on January 27-28
New Delhi, January 24
BJP's newly-appointed National President Nitin Nabin will be on his first official visit to West Bengal on January 27 and 28, during which he will participate in a series of key organisational meetings aimed at strengthening the party's grassroots framework ahead of the state assembly elections.
Nitin Nabin will chair a State Core Team Meeting in Durgapur on January 27, focusing on organisational strategy, political roadmap, and upcoming programmes.
On January 28, Nabin will attend the Bardhaman Bibhag Karyakarta Sammelan at Chitralaya Mela Maidan, Purba Bardhaman, where he will interact with party workers. Later in the afternoon, he will participate in the Asansol District Karyakarta Meeting in Raniganj, addressing organisational issues and guiding party workers at the district level.
Meanwhile, Union Home Minister and senior BJP leader Amit Shah will visit West Bengal on January 30 and 31. During his two-day tour, Amit Shah is expected to hold important organisational and political meetings, further energising the party cadre and reviewing preparations for the upcoming political challenges in the state.
The back-to-back visits of senior BJP leaders underline the party's focused efforts to strengthen its organisation and sharpen its political strategy in West Bengal.
This comes as the BJP aim to emerge as the single largest party in the upcoming West Bengal elections and end Trinamool Congress chief Mamata Banerjee's 14 years of rule.
Earlier, Nitin Nabin chaired a meeting related to the party's central office bearers at the BJP headquarters in the national capital.
The BJP chief reviewed the party's election preparations in West Bengal, Assam, Tamil Nadu, Kerala, and Puducherry, and expressed satisfaction with the progress.
During that meeting, Nabin said that the party is confident of forming governments in West Bengal, Assam, and Tamil Nadu, and expects a strong performance in Kerala. The meeting also discussed the party's success in local body elections, including in Maharashtra.
Nitin Nabin emphasised the need to strengthen the BJP's booth and mandal units, providing guidance to office-bearers on organisational matters.

As a Bengali, I just want development and peace. Whether it's BJP or TMC, their leaders keep visiting but the condition of roads and hospitals in my town remains poor. Hope this meeting translates into actual work on the ground, not just political speeches.
The BJP's strategy is clear - they are not taking Bengal lightly. Sending both the National President and the Home Minister back-to-back shows how serious they are. Didi's government should be worried. The winds of change are blowing! 💨
I respect the hustle, but I hope the focus remains on issues that matter to Bengalis - jobs, inflation, and women's safety. Sometimes these high-profile visits feel more about political one-upmanship than connecting with the common man's problems.
Strong booth-level management is key to winning elections. BJP learned this in 2014 and 2019. If they can replicate that model in Bengal by energizing karyakartas, they have a real shot. The upcoming elections will be very interesting to watch!
Durgapur and Asansol are industrial areas that have seen better days. Maybe the BJP will talk about reviving industry and creating jobs there? That would be a welcome change from the usual political rhetoric. Fingers crossed. 🤞
