New Delhi, June 17 (IBNS): The BJP has selected senior leader J.P. Nadda to be the party president since Amit Shah, who is now the Union home minister, has said he would like to step down from the post.

BJP leader and defence minister Rajnath Singh today made a statement to this effect and said the Parliamentary Board of the BJP had unanimously decided that Jagat Prakash Nadda would be the working president of the party till internal organisational elections are duly conducted

"Under the leadership of Amit Shah, the BJP performed excellently in various parts of the country," said Singh. "Now that the PM has appointed him home minister, Amit Shah ji himself said the responsibility of party president should be given to someone else."

"The BJP Parliamentary board has selected JP Nadda as working president," he added.
