According to sources, the Odisha state unit has been instructed to run as many campaigns as possible, targeting farmers' markets and youth as part of the membership drive.

"Instructions have been given to promote the BJP membership drive through various campaigns. The goal is to add as many people as possible at more than 37,000 booths in Odisha. Last year, over 40 lakh members were enrolled in Odisha, and this time the target has been increased to one crore," the sources said.

On September 2, Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched the BJP's 2024 membership drive 'Sanghatan Parva, Sadasyata Abhiyan 2024' by renewing his membership and urging party workers to make special efforts to connect with the youth.
