The Bharatiya Janata Party in Haryana on Monday decided to celebrate the birth anniversary of former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee at every booth on December 25 in the state.
The decision in this regard was taken during the party’s meeting held under state BJP chief OP Dhankar in Gurugram. Cabinet Ministers, BJP MPs, MLAs and senior party leaders attended the meeting.
After the meeting, OP Dhankar said that former Prime Minister Vajpayee will be remembered at every booth in the state and at least 11 workers at every booth will participate in such events. Around two lakh party workers will be part of events across the state on December 25 and leaflets of the work done by Atal Bihari Bajpayee for the martyrs will also be distributed, he said.
A blueprint has been prepared for various events to be organized by the party in the coming months. It has also been decided to organize district training camps for party workers in all the districts by December 15. The training camps will be organized in all 308 mandals of the state, he said.
