More than 30 Kashmiri Muslim youth will be part of the BJP’s expansion drive across the country for six months, party president Amit Shah said on Sunday, terming it an “encouraging development” for the party.
In the city as part of his 95-day tour of the country to take stock of the party’s organisational work, Mr. Shah met party workers from the State who would be travelling across the nation.
“More than 30 Muslim youth from Kashmir are part of the Deen Dayal Upadhyay expansion plan of the party. Most of them are engineers and double graduates. They have agreed to work for six months for the BJP’s expansion. I welcome them from my heart,” he said.
The BJP has drawn a list of over 3.52 lakh workers from across the country who will be sent to different parts for 15 days to a year to promote the party.
