We have to reach every house, person and class: CM
On the launch of the membership drive in Delhi, CM Yogi wrote on social media on Monday that the BJP membership drive starting today is a movement to connect the individual with the spirit of Nation First, the resolve to serve the people, the vow of Antyodaya and the vision of a developed India-self-reliant India. All of us BJP workers should make this national task successful with full energy and commitment by assimilating PM Modi’s mantra of ‘Sabka Saath-Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas and Sabka Prayas’. Keep in mind that no house, person, class should be left out.
