BJP Working President Nitin Nabin is all set to become the next National President of the Bharatiya Janata Party, with his election expected to be formally announced tomorrow. Party National Returning Officer Dr. K. Laxman confirmed that Nitin Nabin was the sole nominee for the post, underscoring broad consensus within the party leadership.

Dr. Laxman said all 37 sets of nomination papers submitted for the position were in support of Nitin Nabin. Following scrutiny, each nomination was found to be duly completed in the prescribed format and declared valid, clearing the way for his unopposed election.

The nomination was proposed by senior BJP leaders, including current National President J. P. Nadda, Union Ministers Amit Shah, Rajnath Singh, and Nitin Gadkari, along with members of the BJP Parliamentary Party Board, reflecting strong backing from the party’s top brass.

The BJP National President is elected by an electoral college comprising representatives from the party’s national council and state councils. The post is currently held by Union Minister Jagat Prakash Nadda, who was appointed as National Working President in June 2019 and later elected unopposed as party president in January 2020, succeeding Amit Shah.

With all formalities completed, Nitin Nabin’s elevation marks a significant leadership transition within the party.
