Guwahati, Oct 11 (IANS) The Assam BJP is well on its way towards achieving the 100 per cent target of getting 60 lakh new members for the party in the ongoing membership drive, a senior leader said on Friday.
As per the latest data, the BJP’s membership in the state has crossed the 58 lakh members mark.
The state unit had asked every Assembly constituency to aim for 40,000 members and 91 out of the 126 total Assembly segments have already fulfilled that target, the BJP leader said.

Congratulations to the karyakartas of Behali, Karimganj North and Mazbat constituencies for their hard work in enrolling 40,000+ members. With 58.31 lakh new members @BJP4Assam is nearing 100 per cent of the target we had set.”
BJP leaders in the state have been focussing on the youth who are between 18 and 25 years of age in the membership drive.
