As part of his efforts to ensure better coordination between the government and the party, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has directed all BJP office-bearers to hold a discussion with Union Finance and Defence Minister Arun Jaitley at least once in a week.
Reports on Tuesday said that the Prime Minister's Office had asked all BJP and government spokespersons and TV panelists to meet Jaitley every Monday.
The move is part of Modi's efforts to prevent lack of communication between the party spokespersons and the government on a wide range of issues.
The move will also help the party office-bearers to convey the government's stand on various issues and its decisions to the grass-roots level with more ease and clarity. Union Law Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad will also be there at such meetings besides some other ministers, who will brief the party spokespersons and leaders.
After Prime Minister Narendra Modi's meeting with Cabinet ministers and party leaders last month, it was decided that a minister will visit the party headquarters every day to hear grievances of party workers. Ministers have been asked to go to party offices during their visits to other parts of the country.
The effort is also aimed at strengthening the party's communication network. The BJP Parliamentary party has recently announced five spokespersons for both Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha, who will speak on the party's position on key issues concerning Parliament.
