BJP likely to get its new national president by end of 2024

New Delhi [India], October 29 : The Bhartiya Janta Party is likely to get its new National President by the last week of December 2024, sources said.
According to the top source in BJP-RSS, "BJP can announce its new national president's name at the end of this year. Preparation for elections has almost done and BJP is all set to have its new presidents at all levels".
The BJP is already on the verge of holding the organisation election, preparation is all set for getting new presidents from the booth to the national level.
The BJP has outlined its plan to elect a new party president, with the current chief, Jagat Prakash Nadda, set to continue in his role until the end of 2024. The party's constitution mandates a detailed electoral process that will conclude with the appointment of a new president by December 2024.
As always, the elections to the party's local committees will be held first, followed by polls for the mandal, district, regional and state committees. The president elected at each level nominates a team of office-bearers.
Once elections to half the states are held, an election is held for a full-time national president. The new national president then nominates a team of office-bearers. The whole process takes about two months.
A BJP national president can have a maximum of two consecutive terms of three years each. This amendment was made in 2012 when the RSS wanted Nitin Gadkari to head the BJP for a second consecutive term. However, at the last moment, Rajnath Singh replaced Gadkari and held the post till the party won the 2014 Lok Sabha elections.
Amit Shah replaced him as the BJP chief then. Nadda has been party chief since January 2020 and is on an extension.
