Vinod Tawde, a Mumbaikar who is the national general secretary of the BJP, will be spearheading the party’s fundamental strategic planning for the 2024 Lok Sabha polls. Tawde has been made the convener of the team that will plan the use of party’s national and state leaders in the poll campaigns, which will intensify in the coming days. The team includes national general secretaries Sunil Bansal and Tarun Chugh, and other office-bearers of the party.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi has already planned more than 100 nationwide meetings ahead of the general elections. This number doesn’t include the meetings he will be addressing during the actual electioneering once the dates are announced next March or so, said a senior BJP leader.
