Is Devendra Fadnavis set to become the next national president of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)? Speculation has been swirling that he may replace JP Nadda, but the Maharashtra deputy chief minister has dismissed these rumors, attributing them to media gossip.
When questioned about the potential leadership change, Fadnavis remarked, “The talk of me taking over as BJP chief is just media speculation. It’s all media-created hype.”
The buzz intensified after Fadnavis’s recent meeting with Prime Minister Narendra Modi in New Delhi, where he expressed gratitude for the PM’s guidance and support.
Accompanied by his wife and daughter, Fadnavis described the meeting as a courtesy call, emphasizing his appreciation for PM Modi’s time and advice.
With Nadda’s term set to expire and the BJP on the lookout for a new leader, Fadnavis has emerged as a potential candidate alongside Vinod Tawde.
Rumors suggest that Fadnavis may step down as Maharashtra deputy CM soon to take on the national president role in Delhi, potentially paving the way for Tawde to lead the party in the state elections.
Reports indicate that the BJP is gearing up for a leadership change by December 2024, with an election process slated to begin soon. The party is expected to focus on expanding its membership and strengthening state units before the polls.
