"A Man Of 'Samanvay' Who Won't Cross Lines": Meet Nitin Nabin, New BJP Boss

Senior Bharatiya Janata Party leader Nitin Nabin was confirmed Tuesday as the party's new National President, replacing Jagat Prakash Nadda in the high-profile post and capping an exhaustive internal selection process that began at the grassroots and progressed to the national level.

The appointment of a 45-year-old Nitin Nabin is seen as a signal of the BJP's renewed emphasis on organisational strength and generational transition ahead of key state polls this year and next - including in Bengal, Tamil Nadu, Assam, and Uttar Pradesh- and before the 2029 federal election.

Nabin's appointment, party sources also pointed out, contrasts sharply (as it is meant to) with arch-rivals Congress continuing to be led by 84-year-old veteran politician Mallikarjun Kharge.

But who is Nitin Nabin? Watch this report.
