Bhubaneswar: Former Chief Minister of Madhya Pradesh, Shivraj Singh Chouhan, will launch the BJP membership drive in Odisha from Saturday.

Later, he will address a public meeting at Gita Bhawan ground in Khurda at 4 pm and launch the party’s membership drive after becoming a party member of Khurda.
This will be BJP’s first public meeting in Khurda after the general elections in May.

Besides, Singh will attend a function in memory of former External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj and plant saplings near the town stadium.
