The Bharatiya Janata Party's (BJP) Central Election Committee convened a significant meeting at the party headquarters in New Delhi to deliberate on the candidate list for the upcoming Lok Sabha elections, with the first list of candidates expected to be announced soon. The meeting, chaired by BJP President Jagat Prakash Nadda and attended by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Home Minister Amit Shah, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, and Chief Ministers from various states, underscores the party's preparations for the elections.
