Bhubaneswar: In another step towards preparation for elections in 2024, the BJD on Monday started the master training programme for its workers at party office “Sankha Bhawan” in Bhubaneswar.
As per the schedule of the training announced by the BJD, as many as 800 party workers will be trained in four phases every day. More than 30,000 party workers will undergo training which will continue till October 19.
At least four BJD workers from each panchayat in the state will be imparted training. The party targets to cover all panchayats under total 147 Assembly constituencies during the training for 37 days.
On the first day, the workers of Cuttack, Chowdwar, Jagatsinghpur, Hinjilikatu and Bhanjanagar constituencies were impsrted training under the supervision of sennior leaders Debi Prasad Mishra and Manas Mangaraj.
The BJD had come up with the idea of training the party workers earlier on the instruction of its president Naveen Patnaik. The party aims at training its cadres to work as campaigners of the government’s welfare schemes in the run-up to the elections to mobilise support from the voters.
The BJD also plans to renew its campaign “Ghare Ghare Sankha” (party symbol conch in every house), which the party had launched before 2019 elections.
The party has formed a committee headed by senior leader and vice-president Debi Prasad Mishra to look after the training programme. Several experienced leaders are also members of the committee. Besides, experts from various departments, economists and political experts have been roped in to impart training.
