Under the 'Ghar Chalo Abhiyan', the BJP aims to reach all households falling under one lakh polling booths in Maharashtra, state party chief Chandrashekhar Bawankule told reporters on Tuesday

"The party is striving to expand its membership significantly through the 'Sangathan Parv' initiative, which started on January 1. We plan to make BJP the largest party in Maharashtra with 1.5 crore new members," he said

"On January 5, Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis and other senior leaders conducted the first phase of the drive at the booth level. The second phase will begin on January 10 under the 'Ghar Chalo Abhiyan'," the state revenue minister said

The campaign will involve visits to every household to register new members. Teams comprising MLAs, MPs, ministers and elected representatives from panchayats to Parliament will visit 40 to 50 houses under every booth to carry out the drive, he said

As part of the plan, the BJP has aimed to enroll 1.5 crore new primary members, the senior party leader said
