Nitin Nabin to interact with envoys from 12 nations under 'Know BJP'
New Delhi, May 26
Bharatiya Janata Party National President Nitin Nabin will interact with Heads of Missions from 12 countries on Tuesday evening as part of the party's 'Know BJP' initiative aimed at strengthening engagement with the diplomatic community.
The interaction is scheduled to take place at the BJP's Central Headquarters in New Delhi at 4 p.m., a party statement said.
The programme is being organised under the BJP's international outreach efforts to familiarise diplomats with the party's history, ideological framework, governance model and organisational functioning.
Announcing the event, Vijay Chauthaiwale, the BJP's in-charge of the foreign affairs department, said the initiative is part of an ongoing series of interactions with foreign diplomats.
"It is part of a series of programmes aimed at familiarising the diplomatic community with the BJP's historical journey, ideology, organisational structure, governance model and ongoing activities," Chauthaiwale said.
This would be Nitin Nabin's first formal interaction with foreign Mission Heads after taking charge as the BJP National President.
The BJP has been actively engaging with Ambassadors and High Commissioners from different countries through its global outreach programme titled 'Know BJP', which was initiated during the tenure of former BJP National President J. P. Nadda.
The interactions generally include detailed presentations on the BJP's political journey, screenings of documentaries, and discussions aimed at promoting greater political understanding and party-to-party dialogue at the international level.
Since the launch of the initiative, the BJP has held engagements with diplomats representing various regions across the world, including the European Union, the Middle East, Africa, Latin America and the Indo-Pacific.
Apart from meetings held in New Delhi, the outreach programme also includes field visits and on-ground tours where diplomats are invited to observe election campaigns, booth-level management and grassroots political activities in different states.

Interesting that they're doing this 'Know BJP' thing. I wish more Indian political parties would engage with foreign diplomats in a structured way. Makes you wonder about transparency though.
As long as they are showing the real picture - our infrastructure growth, digital India, women empowerment under Modi ji. No need to hide anything. Proud of our party's work. 🇮🇳
Would be nice if this included some critical questions from diplomats about issues like farmers protests or press freedom. But I guess that's not the purpose of 'Know BJP' - it's a sales pitch, not a debate.
Great initiative! As an Indian student abroad, I see how little people know about our political system. If BJP can explain its ideology and track record properly, it will help India's image globally. Diplomats visiting grassroots campaigns sounds particularly interesting.
Nice to see continuity from Nadda ji to Nabin ji. But I hope they also listen to what diplomats have to say about India - not just one-way communication. Real diplomacy means two-way exchange. Still, better than previous governments who ignored foreign outreach entirely.
