Amit Shah To Address 50,000 BJP Workers During 'Vijay Sankalp Sammelan' In Indore Today
Union Home Minister Amit Shah will on Sunday address 50,000 BJP workers from the Bharatiya Janata Party's Indore division during a 'Vijay Sankalp Sammelan'. Categorically denying speculation of infighting in the saffron party, BJP national general secretary Kailash Vijayvargiya said that 50,000 BJP workers from the Indore division will attend the programme. Shah, being a key BJP strategist, will interact with booth-level workers of the ruling party in Indore for the first time ahead of upcoming state polls.
"In the past, attempts were made to mislead the public with bogus (polls) surveys. But during Shah's visit on Sunday, the message that will go across will leave no room for confusion about the Assembly poll results," Vijayvargiya said on Saturday, as quoted by news agency PTI.
Earlier, the BJP national general secretary had informed that Shah will visit the birthplace of Lord Parshuram at Janapav Kuti, about 50 km from the city during the visit.
