NEW DELHI: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday launched the Bharatiya Janata Party’s 2024 membership drive ‘Sanghatan Parva, Sadasyata Abhiyan 2024’ by renewing his membership and urged party workers to make special efforts to connect with the youth.

“The people who are 18-20 years old today have not read the newspapers whose headline used to be that today there has been a scam of so many lakhs, today there has been a scam of so many crores… the children who are 18-20 years old today have not read this. They do not know what the situation was 10-11 years ago, they have seen a new Hindustan and for this their dreams also start from there, and then our responsibility increases. Isn’t it our responsibility to target the entire generation of 18-25 years old and connect them with BJP through a plan so that they too come to know how many bad days their parents had seen,” PM Modi said.

PM Modi said that the membership drive and the organisational structure that will be established during this period will coincide with the implementation of 33 per cent reservation in Legislative Assemblies and Parliament.

“If this 33 per cent reservation for women is to be introduced during this time, then in my membership drive, can we include all those individuals who can help my party ensure that the maximum number of women are elected as MLAs and MPs, thus making this crucial decision a success?” he asked.

“This very membership drive isn’t just a ritual. It’s an expansion of our family…It isn’t a game of numbers. It doesn’t matter the numbers we achieve. This membership drive is an ideological and emotional movement,” he added.

The Prime Minister said from the days of Bharatiya Jana Sangh till now, “we have made all possible efforts to bring a new political culture in the country.”

“Another round of ‘Sadasyata Abhiyan’ is beginning today. From Bharatiya Jana Sangh till now, we have made all possible efforts to bring a new political culture in the country. The organisation or political party through which people give power, that unit, that organisation, that party… if it doesn’t follow democratic values, if internal democracy doesn’t live in it, then a situation arises that is faced by several other political parties today,” the Prime Minister said.

He recalled his early days into the party and said that he painted Lotus, BJP’s election symbol, on the walls and always had faith that Lotus would bloom in people’s hearts.

“When I was not in politics, at the time of Jana Sangh, our workers used to paint ‘diya’ (symbol of Jana Sangh) on walls with enthusiasm… and leaders of several political parties used to mock, saying that one cannot reach the corridors of power by painting ‘diyas’ on walls. We are those who painted ‘lotus’ on walls with such confidence that we knew, one day the ‘lotus’ painted on walls will be painted on the hearts of the people,” PM Modi said.

He said the BJP is the only political party that is following the democratic process properly.

PM Modi said the BJP is also expanding its work and strives to improve to live up to the expectations of the people.”Several generations have invested their lives into this party, and then today the party has made its place in the hearts of the people,” he added.

PM Modi also turned emotional while recalling the struggle of party workers. “Our party workers used to protest against those in power for the issues of people. So they kept going to and coming out of jail. 50 years ago, the People Jan Sangh were doing ‘Satyagraha’ in Ahmedabad, and so many people were jailed just for agitating. One of the women workers who went to jail, spent a month in jail with her 9-month-old baby. That’s how BJP reached here…and those people who committed this crime…they had so much greed for power,” he said.

He further said that the poor people of the country have the greatest faith in the results of our policies, decisions, and the paths the government has adopted.

“Today the poor people of the country have the greatest faith in the results of our policies, decisions, and the paths we have adopted. Therefore, we have to move forward with that strength. I am confident that this membership campaign will break all old records,” he added. The Prime Minister urged BJP members to make border villages a stronghold of the party.

PM Modi received his BJP membership renewal certificate from party president JP Nadda at the ‘Sanghatan Parva, Sadasyata Abhiyan 2024’ here.Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, Home Minister Amit Shah, and Health Minister and BJP chief JP Nadda also spoke on the occasion.

Speaking at the launch of the BJP’s ‘Sanghatan Parva, Sadasyata Abhiyan 2024,’ Union Home Minister Amit Shah said that the BJP is not only the biggest party of the world but is also a unique party.

“BJP is not only the world’s largest political party but also the most democratic party. No other party conducts its membership drive with such transparency and honesty as the BJP,” he said.

Defence Minister Rajnath Singh said the BJP stands out as the most credible political party in the world.”

Modiji has made sure that even if we dream big, our promises to people must always remain in alignment with what we are capable of delivering. We must be able to translate our promises into actions. This is why the BJP stands out as the most credible political party in the world. We don’t do politics for the sake of forming government, but to form an empowered society,” he said.

Union Minister and BJP chief JP Nadda said that he is confident that Sadasyata Abhiyan this time will also cross 10 crore again. “Seeing your enthusiasm and the love of people of India for PM Modi as well as their faith in the BJP, I can confidently say that the Sadasyata Abhiyan this time will also cross 10 crore again,” Nadda said.

Union Minister Hardeep Singh Puri said that all across the country, people are excited, adding that the BJP is already the largest party in the world.

“All across the country, people are excited…this is a one-of-a-kind membership drive. The BJP is already the largest party in the world. In the coming days, our party’s membership will increase further, and we will carry forward the developmental work of PM Modi, across the country,” Puri said.

The membership drive will be conducted in two phases–September 2 to September 25 and October 1 to October 15. Each phase will target specific milestones, ensuring a comprehensive reach across the country. (ANI)
