The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has started upping its preparation for the 2024 general elections with a mega meeting of the top leaders at the party headquarters in Delhi on Tuesday.

Even though the BJP won 303 of the 543 Lok Sabha seats in 2019-the first time in decades a party got a majority on its own-but more than 100 seats went to the opposition, of which the Congress got the maximum — 53 seats.

However, this time the party is hopeful that proper groundwork on these seats will help boost its numbers in the next election, media reports said.

Tuesday’s meeting was helmed by BJP chief JP Nadda and Union Home Minister Amit Shah, who have tasked each of the attending ministers with focussing on three to four seats.

Over the last few months, the ministers paid multiple visits to the constituencies, recced at the ground level and provided feedback.

The ministers also need to write the status of government schemes in the constituencies.

They were also asked to help strengthen the party organisation at the grassroot-level.
