"It is a matter of great fortune that a senior leader from our Bihar is today becoming the National President... Today is a matter of great joy for us... He is my voter in Patna, and I am his... May he be highly successful, take the party forward, that is our best wish," he said.

BJP leader Deepak Prakash said, "Nominations are going to be filed today, and as BJP workers, it is a day of celebration for all of us. Therefore, we have all come... We will participate in Nitin Nabin's nomination."

Meanwhile, Nitin Nabin, the BJP's National Working President, is all set to file his nomination for the top post today.

Nitin Nabin is currently 45 years old. He was appointed as the national working president on December 14, 2025. Now, the party is likely to make him the national president, succeeding JP Nadda. If this happens, he'll be the youngest ever to hold the post.

While change is good, I hope the focus remains on governance and real issues like inflation and employment, not just party politics. The new leadership must deliver.
