BJP National General Secretary Smriti Irani on Saturday arrived in Chhattisgarh for a two day visit in which she will meet party office bearers and review organisational activities.
Brijmohan Agarwal welcomed Irani and expressed confidence that her leadership would bolster the party’ performance.
He said, “We extend a very warm welcome and greetings to Smriti Irani. Under her leadership, the BJP will become even stronger and more organised, and the government will be able to perform even better.”
Rajya Sabah MP Laxmi Verma also expressed optimism on her visit. Irani will interact with state-level office-bearers, representatives of various party wings and cells, as well as Members of Parliament and the Legislative Assembly. She is also set to participate in the ‘Mann Ki Baat’ broadcast.
Speaking about the visit, Verma said, “Given the work accomplished under her leadership so far, it will undoubtedly strengthen the organisation. She is visiting Chhattisgarh today and will hold meetings with all state-level office-bearers, representatives from various wings and cells, as well as Members of Parliament and the Legislative Assembly. She will conduct an in-depth review.”
Verma in the same interaction criticised protests at Jamia Milia Islamia as efforts to mislead students. She claimed, ” There are certain anti-social elements there who wish to weaken the nation by misleading students; these individuals aim to disrupt the overall atmosphere within the country—but they will never succeed. The people of this nation have understood their true intentions. This is absolutely wrong; such individuals are traitors to the country and should, in fact, be expelled from the nation.”
