Keeping caste equations in mind, each programme will be attended by people from three OBC-dominated constituencies, two urban constituencies, one scheduled caste-dominated constituency and one minority-dominated constituency, they said.
Among the key features of Mr Shah's visit will be his late evening meetings with party workers to deliberate on strategies for the upcoming elections, they said It was under the leadership of Mr Shah as BJP chief that the party had won a massive majority in the 2017 Uttar Pradesh assembly polls, and won 67 Lok Sabha seats out of 80 in 2019.
In 2014, when he was Uttar Pradesh in-charge, the BJP had won 73 Lok Sabha seats.
