Regarding the meeting, BJP Mahila Morcha national president Vanithi Srinivasan told ANI that the discussion focused on mobilising women workers, outreach programmes, and state-specific election strategies. Valuable guidance was received from BJP National General Secretary (Organisation) BL Santosh. This year, 2026, the states going to the polls in India include West Bengal, Assam, Tamil Nadu, Kerala, and Puducherry. While some face the challenge of retaining power, others aim to make history for the first time. West Bengal, Tamil Nadu, and Kerala are states where the BJP has not yet won assembly elections. This time, the BJP is confident of winning the polls. Meanwhile, the BJP is trying to win Assam for a third term and Puducherry for a second. (ANI)
