This year is important from the point of view of elections. Assembly elections will be held in Madhya Pradesh, Tripura, Karnataka, Meghalaya, Nagaland, Mizoram, Rajasthan, Telangana and Chhattisgarh this year.

In six out of these nine states, governments of BJP and its allies are in power. While there are Congress governments in Rajasthan and Chhattisgarh, Telangana is governed by the Bharatiya Rashtra Samithi (formerly Telangana Rashtra Samithi).

BJP will declare the status quo of the national Party post after the national office-bearers meeting on 16 January, the sources said.

Nadda's three-year term as the party president ends later this month. However, in view of upcoming elections, his term is being extended. (ANI)
