"More election offices will be opened in February. From today, all activities for the elections will be coordinated through these offices," Raina said.

He also highlighted the BJP has its strength at the grassroots level. Raina further hit out at the Congress saying, "The Congress has been washed away from the electoral landscape. Its INDIA bloc has disintegrated. The boat in which its alliance partners were sailing has drowned. The boat in which Mallikarjun Kharge or Rahul Gandhi is sailing is slowly drowning," he said.

Raina also chaired a meeting with Senior BJP Leaders at Party Headquarters in Jammu on Tuesday.

Jammu and Kashmir's BJP General Secretary Sunil Sharma also addressed a gathering of party karyakartas at newly inaugurated parliamentary election office in Baramulla and discussed the strategies for the upcoming Lok Sabha election.
