Junagadh The BJP has geared up for the forthcoming Lok Sabha polls well in advance. On Saturday, Saurashtra-Kutch BJP Youth units were organised in Bhavnath, at the foot of Girnar Mountain. Meanwhile, a three-day Chintan Shibir concluded on Friday at Sasan (Gir) in which office bearers of the state BJP unit and heads of the party’s seven different units took part.

According to sources in the BJP, at the Chintan Shibir, the party leadership chalked out a strategy for the LS poll. At the youth workshop, a training session was organised for young party workers to strengthen the party organisation.

State BJP chief Parshottam Rupala presided over the Chintan Shibir held at Sinh-Sadan (forest guest house). Nine vice presidents, seven secretaries, four general secretaries, treasurer and office bearers of the party’s seven units were present at the camp.

Karsan Dhadook, Junagadh city BJP unit president, said: “State-level office bearers of the party’s seven different units — Farmer unit, Youth unit, Woman wing, Schedule Caste and Scheduled Tribe unit, Backward Class unit and Minority unit, took part in the Chintan Shibir and shared their ideas regarding the Lok Sabha polls.”

Although no official statement has been issued by the party regarding the camp, leaders maintained the party is preparing in advance for the Lok Sabha elections.

Pradeep Khimani, BJP councillor in Junagadh Municipal Corporation and senior leader, said: “In the youth workshop, a training session was organised for young party workers, where guidelines were issued on how to make public contact, organise public and group meetings, and strengthen the organisation. Besides, they were taught about party ideology.”
