Who will take over the reins of the Bharatiya Janata Party? This question is on everyone’s mind right now. Currently, the BJP is busy searching for a new national president and there is a constant debate within the party about this. Although no final name has been announced yet, there are reports that some new faces have been added to the list of candidates along with the names of many senior leaders. It is said that the name of a Union Minister and the name of a Chief Minister have been included in the list of possible candidates for the post of president.
Many names are being discussed for the BJP President
For a long time, the names of Agriculture Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan and Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan were under discussion in the BJP’s internal circles. Both are said to have organizational experience and a strong hold at the center. But now it is said that two more big names have been added to the list. These include the names of Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis and Union Minister of Fisheries, Animal Husbandry and Dairying Purushottam Rupala.
Why is the name of Devendra Fadnavis special?
According to media reports, the party leadership is considering giving Fadnavis a bigger role. Sources have informed him that he may have to step down as the Chief Minister after the Bihar assembly elections. Although his new role has not been openly discussed, his name has emerged strongly in the race for the party president’s post. He is counted among the party’s young leaders and is trusted by both the RSS and the top leadership. That is why his name is constantly in the headlines.
Rupala under scrutiny – Dharmendra also in the running
Similarly, senior Gujarat leader Purushottam Rupala is also said to be in the running for the post of president. It is said that he has the support of the Sangh and is very close to Prime Minister Narendra Modi. His simplicity and connection with the organization make him a strong contender for the post. Apart from this, the name of Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan is also a topic of discussion in the political arena. Pradhan has been active in the party organization for a long time and is considered to have a good control over the conduct of elections.
When will the decision be taken?
The biggest question is when the election for the post of BJP president will be held. Officially, the party leadership has not said anything yet. But it is believed that a decision on this can be taken after the Bihar assembly elections. The list of possible candidates has been prepared and there are also reports that it will be considered after the vice-presidential election on September 9. Overall, the smell of a leadership change has intensified within the BJP. There are said to be many big names in the race, but the final decision will be taken by the party leadership and organization.
