JAMMU, Jan 23: The jubilant leaders and activists of Jammu and Kashmir BJP celebrated the election of Rajnath Singh as National President by distributing sweets and greeting each other.
Former State president Shamsher Singh Manhas was leading the jubilant activists at the function held at Party headquarters here today.
Congratulating the Party activists, Shamsher Singh Manhas said that it is a healthy democratic practice in the Party that after the completion of the tenure of President or any other head of unit, the elections are held and any party activist can be the candidate for the top post. Unlike Congress, which is a dynastic party and only members of a particular family can become President, BJP has time and again proved that even a mandal level activist can rise to the post of State President or National president.
Speaking on the political career of Rajnath Singh, Manhas said that the new President has vast experience of the political and organisational setup of the Party. In the past, he has served the Party in different posts and proved his ability and capacity to lead the party even during his last tenure as National president. He said that in view of the Party’s Mission 2014, the responsibility on Rajnath Singh at this juncture has become all the more important. He expressed hope that the Party will become stronger and get success in achieving thumping majority in the elections as and when held.
State General Secretary Kavinder Gupta and other leaders including Mohan Singh Chouhan, Sukhnandan Choudhary (MLA), Lalit Moza, Balbir Ram Rattan, Munish Sharma, Rajesh Gupta, Vishwinder Dev Sharma, Rajnish Jain, Ramesh Sharma, Gurdyal Singh Bali, Subhash Gupta, Narotaam Sharma, Subhash Jandial and others took part in the celebrations.
