PM Modi renews his membership as BJP's first active member

The prime minister enrolled for the 'Sakriya Sadasyata' (active membership) in the presence of BJP president J P Nadda and general secretary Vinod Tawde, who has been named as the convener of the nationwide membership drive.

As per the campaign, an active member of the BJP has to enrol at least 50 persons as party members in a booth or in assembly seats. The rules state that only active members can take part in the party's organisational elections, which will begin after the membership drive ends.

Posting on X, PM Narendra Modi said, "Adding momentum to our endeavour of making a Viksit Bharat! As BJP Karyakarta, proud to become the first Sakriya Sadasya and launch the Sakriya Sadasyata Abhiyan today... This is a movement which will further strengthen our Party at the grassroots and ensure the effective contribution of our Party Karyakartas for national progress."
