His appointment will give the party an opportunity to further energise its cadre, strengthen booth-level networks and expand its outreach among people in every part of Jammu and Kashmir,” Sharma said.
He said the BJP’s organisational strength has always been rooted in its workers and therefore greater emphasis on grassroots mobilisation, cadre development and regular public contact would be important for taking the party’s message and programmes to a wider section of society.Sharma said Jammu and Kashmir has a diverse geographical and social landscape, requiring an organisational approach that gives adequate attention to the aspirations of people in both the Jammu and Kashmir regions, including rural areas and smaller communities.

He said BJP workers at the grassroots level must remain connected with people, understand their local concerns and communicate the party’s policies and welfare initiatives effectively.He said the appointment of new organisational leadership should also help strengthen coordination between the party organisation and its elected representatives, enabling greater attention to issues raised by people at the local level.
“An organisation becomes stronger when its workers remain continuously connected with society. The new responsibility entrusted to Satish Poonia provides an opportunity to further consolidate this connection and give fresh energy to the BJP’s organisational activities in J&K,” Sharma said.He expressed confidence that Poonia, along with the J&K BJP leadership and dedicated party workers, would work towards further strengthening the organisational network and expanding the party’s engagement with people across the Union Territory.
Sharma also congratulated Satish Poonia and Reena Kashyap on their new responsibilities and wished them success in their organisational assignments.He said the BJP cadre in Jammu and Kashmir should look at the reshuffle as an opportunity to work with renewed commitment, discipline and greater grassroots involvement, while remaining focused on public service and strengthening the party’s organisational presence across the Union Territory.
