    What's the story

    JP Nadda's tenure as the national president of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has been extended until June 2024.

    The BJP National Executive took the decision unanimously on Tuesday, and the announcement was made by Union Home Minister Amit Shah.

    Notably, Nadda's three-year tenure was to end on Friday (January 20) after he succeeded Shah as the party chief in 2020.

    Context

    Why does this story matter?

    Nadda's tenure extension comes at a time when the BJP is gearing up for Assembly elections in nine states and the 2024 Lok Sabha elections.

    It has also been devising an election strategy for executive members to work on. It has set up task forces for reviewing various schemes to ensure better performance.

    Nadda's leadership is expected to boost the campaign and election strategy.

    Details

    Shah's praise for Nadda while making announcement

    Announcing Nadda's tenure extension, Shah said, "Under Nadda's leadership, we had the highest strike rate in Bihar. The NDA won the majority in Maharashtra, won in Uttar Pradesh, and our numbers increased in West Bengal."

    "We also registered a landslide victory in Gujarat," he added.

    Shah expressed optimism about winning more seats in the 2024 LS polls under PM Narendra Modi and Nadda's leadership.

    Challenges

    New challenges ahead of BJP president 

    Nadda got the extension at a time when the BJP lost in two states—Himachal Pradesh Assembly polls and Delhi civic polls—although it recorded a landslide win in Gujarat and came to power in Maharashtra alongside its ally—the break-away faction of Shiv Sena.

    He will be expected to deliver in the upcoming elections in nine crucial states where the BJP wants to ensure a win.

    Pledge

    Nadda emphasizes PM Modi's <em>Panch Pran</em>
