3-day BJP-RSS meet to streamline coordination in UP

To streamline the coordination between the ruling BJP in Uttar Pradesh and the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), a three-day meeting between senior office bearers of both the organisations will begin here on Monday.

“This is the third such coordination meeting in past three months between the BJP and the RSS. These meetings are held to discuss and resolve various issues,” a senior UP BJP leader said.

Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, deputy chief ministers Dinesh Sharma and Keshav Prasad Maurya, who is also the UP BJP chief, along with Sunil Bansal, are likely to participate, a senior leader said.

“From the RSS side, senior functionaries Dattaterya Hosabale, Krishna Gopal (who co-ordinates with BJP) and two area pracharaks Alok and Shiv Narayan are likely to take part,” an RSS office bearer said.

Last week, Laghu Udyog Bharati, the RSS affiliate associated with small scale industries had expressed reservations about the new industrial policy being launched in the state.
