NEW DELHI: The national executive of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) will meet in New Delhi for two days on January 16-17 and is likely to endorse an extension in its national president J P Nadda's tenure, said party sources on Tuesday.

The organizational body of the party will deliberate on its strategy for the forthcoming state assembly elections and take stock of its preparations for the 2024 Lok Sabha polls as well, sources added.

There is a strong possibility that  JP Nadda, whose 3-year term as the party president ends later this month, may get the extension as party chief in view of the coming polls, the party sources said.  The party's performance in recently held assembly elections and the functioning of the BJP's government at the Centre could also come up for discussion in the meeting, the source said.

The deliberation on countrywide programmes planned by the government to mark India's presidency of G-20 is expected to be one of the highlights of the meeting, with the BJP set to appreciate Prime Minister Narendra Modi's efforts in this regard and prepare a road map to involve its cadres in the exercise, it said.

Given that the BJP lost in the Himachal Pradesh and Delhi Municipal elections, the leaders are also expected to review the outcomes of the 2022 state elections.
