Lucknow, Sep 3 (Reporter) Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath urged Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) workers to engage actively in the membership campaign and strive to enroll the highest number of general and active members. Addressing party workers during the launch of the membership drive, the CM said, "Across the length and breadth of India, every person who cherishes this nation's soil aspires to be part of BJP. When we don't connect with them, they feel a deep sense of disappointment. This is when they become susceptible to divisive ideologies that prey on caste, regional, and linguistic differences, threatening to unravel India's social fabric and undermine its unity and integrity." He said, "In such situations, we must reach out to every individual who is waiting for us. Our goal should be singular, as expressed in the line 'Ram kaju kihene bin mohi kahan vishram'. (I find no peace until I serve Ram)." Yogi also joined BJP as a member by dialing the toll-free number under the membership campaign. He said, "We are privileged to join the BJP, the world’s largest political party. In India, the BJP is unique as the only cadre-based party. It operates with a sense of national supremacy, deeply connected to India’s heritage, and represents the nation’s great leaders and its very essence." The CM said, "The party has not only established a strong presence across the country but has also become inclusive, successfully engaging every segment of society in its mission." He said that in independent India BJP is the only party whose national President resigned from his position due to concerns that the then government was threatening the nation’s sovereignty. "Dr Shyama Prasad Mukherjee’s sacrifice regarding Kashmir exemplifies this dedication," he said. Giving the mantra of the country being supreme, Yogi said that every BJP worker can affirm that the country holds greater importance to them than the party itself. He recalled that in 1977, when Congress undermined democracy, Bharatiya Jana Sangh was dissolved and an alliance of opposition parties formed as Janata Party. "The Janata Party's leadership focused on preserving the nation’s democracy," he said. The CM said, "Similarly, under the guidance of Prime Minister Modi and the leadership of party president JP Nadda, BJP has demonstrated its commitment by launching the 'Seva hi Sangathan hai' campaign. This initiative aimed to safeguard 140 crore Indians during the COVID pandemic, reflecting their dedication despite personal risks." He urged party workers to reach out to every individual who may be waiting for them. He suggested, "If we visit the homes of beneficiaries of the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana, take a selfie with them, and use the same mobile to enroll them as members, it will make them feel valued," he said. Yogi emphasised the need to connect with those who have received Ayushman Bharat cards, the 15 crore residents benefiting from free rations over the past four years, those using Ujjwala Yojana cylinders, individuals with new electricity connections, beneficiaries of the Prime Minister Kisan Samman Nidhi, and the 6.5 lakh youths who have secured government jobs. He highlighted the importance of including all these individuals in the campaign to achieve the goal of enrolling the highest number of general and active members in the state with the largest population in the country. Referring to the government’s initiative to engage youth with employment opportunities, the CM highlighted that the recruitment process for 60,200 police personnel has been successfully advanced, with an additional 40,000 positions set to be filled soon. He said that the government plans to create two lakh government jobs over the next two years and one crore jobs in the private sector. "Furthermore, the government aims to assist approximately 60 lakh young people and entrepreneurs in launching new startups and becoming entrepreneurs," he said. Yogi said that whether it involves public welfare programs, employment opportunities in government or the private sector, security issues, or extending infrastructure and development programs to every household, making BJP more accessible will help dispel any doubts caused by those spreading misinformation. He said, "We need to connect with people, foster a sense of belonging, and use this membership campaign as a valuable opportunity. By participating, BJP will reaffirm its leading role, not only globally but also within UP, through the largest membership campaign." Among others BJP state President Chaudhary Bhupendra Chaudhary, Deputy CM Keshav Prasad Maurya and Brajesh Pathak, General Secretary (Organisation) Dharampal, Former Deputy CM and Rajya Sabha MP Dinesh Sharma, were present in the programme...////...
