Interesting to see the entire top leadership present. Shows party unity. But I hope this isn't just about symbolism. The real test will be how he performs and addresses public concerns beyond party politics.

PM Modi's message to Gen Z is clear. But inviting youth to join politics is one thing, giving them actual decision-making power is another. Let's see if this move translates into more young MPs and MLAs in the next elections.

With all due respect, the article reads like a party press release. It would be helpful to know more about Nitin Nabin's political background and his vision for the party. What are his key achievements so far?

The presence of all CMs shows the organizational strength of BJP. But internal democracy? The nomination seems a done deal. Would like to see more contested elections for such top posts to foster healthy debate.
