The mega membership drive in Telangana, which is called as gateway of South India, is significant as the party is aiming to gain power in the state in 2023.

The saffron party is roping in 8,000 leaders for the mega membership drive which will ensure the BJP reaches out to all 32,000 booths in the state.
Recently, Shivraj Singh Chouhan, who is the national head of party membership drive, had visited Hyderabad to review the BJP's status in the state where it has won 4 MPs.
Party state unit chief Dr. K Laxman, P Muralidhar Rao, BJP national general secretary, G Kishan Reddy, Union Minister of State of Home Affairs, MLC N Ramchender Rao, MLA T Raja Singh and others will participate in the program.
