JP Nadda, the national president of India’s Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and a Union Minister, touched down at Thiruvananthapuram International Airport in Kerala on Saturday morning. Kerala BJP chief Rajeev Chandrasekhar and other party leaders greeted him warmly.
Nadda heads to Kollam district for the 72nd birth anniversary celebrations of spiritual leader Mata Amritanandamayi, lovingly called Amma. She draws fans from around the world, so expect big crowds of devotees and guests at the event in Amritapuri Ashram, Vallikavu.
After the festivities, Nadda will lead a key meeting with BJP’s Kerala state office bearers at The Quilon Beach Hotel & Convention Centre in Pallithottam, Thamarakulam. The group will talk strategy: getting the party ready, prepping for upcoming local body elections, and building stronger grassroots connections across Kerala.
Just days earlier, on Thursday, Nadda joined a cleanliness drive in New Delhi. It kicked off the Seva Pakhwada initiative, timed with Pandit Deendayal Upadhyaya’s birth anniversary and the Swachhta Hi Seva 2025 campaign. Prime Minister Narendra Modi called for nationwide service and cleaning efforts to honor Upadhyaya, a founding figure in the BJP’s predecessor, Bharatiya Jana Sangh.
In a post on X, Nadda shared: “Joined the Swachhata Hi Seva 2025 campaign in New Delhi today on Pt. Deendayal Upadhyaya Ji birth anniversary. Inspired by Honble PM Shri Narendra Modi ji vision, every act of cleanliness is a tribute to our shared duty towards a Swachh Bharat. #Swachhotsav.”
He urged everyone to pitch in: “I call on every citizen to join this drive and help create a clean, healthy, and green India for all.”
Meanwhile, Union Home Minister Amit Shah honored Upadhyaya on his 109th birth anniversary with a tribute at BJP headquarters in New Delhi.
