"The nomination process for the election of the Bhartiya Janata Party's new National president began at the BJP headquarters - Report"

New Delhi, January 19

The nomination process for the election of the Bhartiya Janata Party's new National president began at the BJP headquarters in the presence of Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, Union Home Minister Amit Shah, Union Ministers JP Nadda, and other senior leaders on Monday.

The event was graced by senior Ministers, including Union Minister Nitin Gadkari, Union Minister G Kishan Reddy, and Union Minister Manohar Lal Khattar, among others.

Alongside BJP leaders, including Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini, Rajasthan Chief Minister Bhajanlal Sharma, Uttarakhand Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami, Goa Chief Minister Pramod Sawant, and Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Mohan Yadav, among others, arrived at the party headquarters ahead of the nominations.

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

The nomination process is scheduled to take place between 2 pm and 4 pm, followed by the scrutiny of nomination papers from 4 pm to 5 pm. Candidates will have the option to withdraw their nominations between 5 pm and 6 pm, and the national election officer will issue a press statement at 6:30 pm.

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.

The elevation of Nabin will also mark a huge generational shift for the party as it gears up for critical elections this year and next.

The entire top leadership present shows unity. But I hope this internal process also focuses on the real issues facing common people - inflation, jobs. The new president's agenda matters more than the ceremony.

Youngest national president if it happens! This is a positive signal for many young karyakartas like me in the party. Age should not be a barrier to leadership. Jai Hind!

Observing from outside, the process seems very organized and transparent with clear timelines published. A smooth leadership transition is crucial for political stability.

With all CMs and senior ministers there, it's clear who the choice is. Hope the new president will strengthen the party's work at the grassroots level, especially in the southern states.

The article mentions a "generational shift". True, but experience is also key. I respectfully hope the new leadership balances youthful ideas with the wisdom of senior leaders like Rajnath Singh ji.
