”Our central leaders, the prime minister, Union home minister and party president will continue to visit the state… their tours will increase in the near future,” Tigga told reporters at the airport.
BJP West Bengal president Sukanta Majumdar, Leader of Opposition in the Assembly Suvendu Adhikari and MP Dilip Ghosh were among the state leaders present at the airport to receive Shah and Nadda.
The home minister and the BJP chief will visit Gurudwara Bara Sikh Sangat and the Kalighat temple on Tuesday morning, Tigga said.
They will also conduct a series of meetings with state functionaries and frontal organisations, and assess the organisational strength ahead of the general elections, he said.
Later in the evening, the two senior BJP leaders will participate in a closed-door programme at the National Library before departing for New Delhi, Tigga added.
