The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Saturday launched a membership drive amid Prime Minister Narendra Modi's pitch for making it all inclusive so that every section of the society feels that their “flower” is represented in this “wonderful bouquet” of diversity.

Becoming the first person to get the party’s membership in the renewed drive, Modi said the BJP workers should toil hard like during an election campaign and make it an inspirational one across the globe.

“The era of mass agitation for politics seems over... Now people expect parties to play significant role in public life,” he said at a function organised at the BJP headquarters here to launch the drive.

Noting that India is full of diversity, Modi said the BJP should reflect it and “every section of the society should feel that their ‘flower’ is represented in this wonderful bouquet (of BJP).”

He said that getting membership of BJP earlier was difficult but it has become easier now due to the digital revolution adopted by the party.

He told the party cadres not to bother about other parties, contending that BJP has already taken a big lead.

“Put your everything into it... Like you do during an election campaign... It (the drive) should become an inspiration for parties across the world,” the prime minister told the BJP cadres.
