PM Modi To Attend BJP CEC Meeting In Delhi

The Prime Minister is set to take part in the Central Election Committee meeting on Wednesday to hold discussions for the upcoming Madhya Pradesh and Rajasthan assembly elections.

Key leaders including Prime Minister Narendra Modi, BJP President JP Nadda and Home Minister Amit Shah, along with other members of the election committee will take part in the meeting.

Discussions about the candidates for the Madhya Pradesh and Rajasthan state assembly elections are likely to take place in the meeting, news agency ANI reported citing sources.

Last month, the BJP had released its first list of candidates for the Madhya Pradesh assembly elections revealing the names of 39 candidates.  Ahead of the Rajasthan elections, BJP National President JP Nadda, State President CP Joshi, former Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje, and opposition leader Rajendra Rathore have already held several rounds of meetings ahead of the Central Election Committee meeting on September 13.

Notably, five states -- Chhattisgarh, Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Telangana, and Mizoram --are expected to go to the polls later this year, the last round of assembly contest before the 2024 Lok Sabha polls.

Notably, the BJP is in power in Madhya Pradesh and has been running intense campaigns to oust the Congress government in Rajasthan and Chhattisgarh, and the BRS in Telangana. The saffron party has been running organisational events in both Chhattisgarh and Madhya Pradesh to boost its support, especially among the communities where its vote share had gone down.
