Four days after Union Home Minister Amit Shah held a late night meeting with select senior BJP leaders in Bhopal regarding the strategy and preparedness for this year’s crucial assembly polls in Madhya Pradesh, the BJP on Saturday appointed Union Agriculture Minister Narendra Singh Tomar convener of the MP Election Management Committee.
Tomar (66) was one of the leaders present in Amit Shah’s meeting and now he has been given the significant responsibility to play a major role in steering the BJP to victory in the assembly elections.
BJP President Jagat Prakash Nadda issued a letter stating that Tomar has been appointed the convener of the important committee.
