By A Staff Reporter

Delhi: At the launch of BJP's Sanghatan Parva, Sadasyata Abhiyan 2024, Prime Minister Narendra Modi took a nostalgic look back at the party's early days and the dedication of its workers. Addressing the event, PM Modi shared a story from the time of the Bharatiya Jana Sangh, BJP's precursor, illustrating the passion and commitment of the party members even when their efforts were ridiculed by opponents.

"During the time of Bharatiya Jana Sangh, party workers used to paint 'diyas,' then the symbol of the party, on walls with a lot of enthusiasm," Modi recounted. He described how, despite the earnest efforts of the workers, leaders from other parties would mock them, suggesting that such acts wouldn't bring them to power. However, Modi emphasized the unwavering belief and focus of BJP workers in their mission.

"We are those people who painted lotus on walls with so much focus that we had a belief that someday this lotus will get painted in the hearts of people," Modi said, referring to the transformation from the Bharatiya Jana Sangh to the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and its adoption of the lotus as its party symbol.

The Prime Minister's remarks served as a reminder of the BJP's journey from its humble beginnings to becoming one of the most influential political parties in India. The Sanghatan Parva, Sadasyata Abhiyan 2024, is an initiative aimed at expanding the party's membership and reinforcing its organizational strength across the country.
