In a significant move as part of the ongoing Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) membership drive, Rajasthan Chief Minister Bhajan Lal Sharma visited the residence of senior BJP worker Durga Lal Mali in Jaipur. This visit holds considerable symbolic importance, as Mali has been associated with the party since the Jansangh era, demonstrating his long-standing commitment to the party’s ideology and principles.
During his visit, Chief Minister Sharma personally enrolled Durga Lal Mali as a member of the BJP, a gesture that underscores the party’s efforts to reconnect with its veteran members and acknowledge their contributions over the years. This initiative is part of a broader campaign by the BJP to strengthen its grassroots presence and galvanize support ahead of the upcoming elections.
Speaking on the occasion, Chief Minister Sharma emphasized the importance of honoring the party’s legacy and the role of senior members like Mali in shaping its history. He highlighted that the BJP’s strength lies in its dedicated workers who have upheld the party’s values through changing political landscapes.
Durga Lal Mali expressed his gratitude for the recognition and reaffirmed his commitment to the party’s cause. He reflected on his journey with the Jansangh and later the BJP, sharing his experiences and the challenges faced by the party during its formative years.
The BJP’s membership drive aims to bring more people into the fold, particularly those who have been instrumental in the party’s growth. By reaching out to seasoned workers like Durga Lal Mali, the BJP hopes to inspire the younger generation and build a robust organizational base in Rajasthan.
The event in Jaipur is part of a series of initiatives led by the Rajasthan Chief Minister to boost the party’s presence in the state, as the BJP prepares for the upcoming electoral battles. This drive also serves as a reminder of the party’s deep-rooted connections with its senior members and the enduring legacy of the Jansangh in shaping modern-day BJP.
