Before the buzz in Opposition could begin for 2024 polls, now the party has set its eyes on 2024 polls.</p>.<p>After securing victory in Bihar, the BJP election machinery has rolled out in West Bengal, Tamil Nadu, Assam and Kerala, which are going to polls in 2021. The focus of the BJP in the four states is with different intensities in the same order as West Bengal, where it had won 18 seats, a nine time jump from 2014, being the main focus.</p>.<p>Nadda's 120-day ‘Rashtriya Vistrit Pravas’ throughout the country during which he will spend the maximum of eight days in UP with 80 Lok Sabha seats, is aimed at toning up the organisation and hunting for new allies before 2024 polls.</p>
