The party will finalise its programmes for reaching out to the electorate through "One Vote, One Note" and "Mission 272+" campaign, besides the "Modi-for-PM Fund" which will be both online and offline.

The party will also give final shape to its door-to-door campaign and for reaching out to villages, besides state-wise strategies ahead of the general elections.

The meeting of party office-bearers here today, which was preceded by a meeting of general secretaries chaired by party Chief Rajnath Singh and attended by Modi and party veteran L K Advani besides senior party leaders Sushma Swaraj and Arun Jaitley, took stock of the arrangements and current political situation.
 

The party discuss at the Executive tomorrow the political and economic resolutions which will be put forth for consideration at the party's National Council meeting on Saturday and Sunday.

To give a fillip to its fund collection efforts to help bring the party to power in 2014, BJP's 1.3 lakh public functionaries across the country will donate their one month salary.

"This is the last session of the BJP before polls and that is why it is very important," party spokesperson Sudhanshu Trivedi said.
