Notably, after the completion of organisational elections in the State the formal process for election of the next BJP national president will start at any time after January 10 to ensure that the process is completed before January 23 when outgoing party president Amit Shah’s current tenure gets over. Shah took charge as BJP president in July last year after the then president Rajnath Singh joined the Modi Government as Home Minister. While the tenure of BJP chief is fixed as to three years, Shah’s current term will end in January this year as he was nominated as party president only for the rest of Singh’s term.
