Last evening, the party had asked all the Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha MPs to be present at the meeting. This is the first meeting after the BJP retained power in all four of the five states that went to the polls. These four are Uttar Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Manipur and Goa.

PM Modi, who played a major role in BJP’s mega win in the politically crucial state of Uttar Pradesh and others, will address the MPs.

Meanwhile, the BJP Parliamentary Board has appointed Central observers and co-observers for the elections of the leaders of the legislative party in Uttar Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Manipur and Goa assemblies, states where BJP made a landslide victory.

While Amit Shah has been appointed as the Central observer for Uttar Pradesh, Rajnath Singh has been given the responsibility of Uttarakhand. Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman has been appointed Central observer for Manipur while Kiren Rijiju is co-observer. For Goa, Union Agriculture Minister Narendra Singh Tomar has been made the Central observer.

The last such BJP Parliamentary party meeting was held on 21 December 2021, which was also attended by PM Modi.
