It's good to see the process was followed democratically with state presidents voting. Starting the day with prayers at Jhandewalan and Hanuman Mandir shows his roots and values. Hope he focuses on connecting with the youth and women voters.

37 sets of nominations with backing from top leaders is a strong show of unity. The party machinery is impressive. Now the real test begins - delivering on the ground and preparing for the next elections. Expectations are high.

While I wish the new president well, I hope this leadership change brings more focus on substantive policy issues and less on political symbolism. The country needs solutions for unemployment and inflation, not just party events.

PM Modi, Amit Shah ji, and Rajnath Singh ji all proposing his name speaks volumes about the trust in his capabilities. The 'Sangathan Parv' seems well organized. Let's see how he strengthens the party at the booth level.

Good to see a systematic transition. Exceeding the 50% threshold for state president elections shows strong internal democracy. Hoping the new president will address local issues more effectively and reduce factionalism in some states.
