The organisational election process has been completed in more than half of the BJP-ruled states, with 29 out of 37 states finalising their internal elections.
State Presidents from these states will submit one set of nomination papers supporting Nitin Nabin's candidature for the post of national president. Another set of nomination papers will be filed by members of the BJP's National Council.
