PATNA: The RJD will hold its national executive meeting on February 20 in Patna, according to a letter issued by the party’s national secretary general Abdul Bari Siddiqui.
“A meeting has been called on February 20 to discuss the new membership drive for 2022-2025 as well as the election of members from the primary to the national level,” the letter stated. According to sources, the national executive consists of approximately 76 members, including current and former MPs, all state presidents, and others elected to this group.
The meeting is significant because it will result in the formation of a new national council that will elect the party’s president following the membership drive and election of members to various positions. Lalu Prasad has been the RJD chief since July 5, 1997, and his current tenure will expire in December 2022.
