New Delhi, July 8 (IBNS) Prime Minister Narendra Modi's close aide Amit Shah can take over as the president of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), said media reports on Tuesday, adding that the announcement can come as early as on Wednesday.

The BJP parliamentary board is meeting on Wednesday.

The seat of president of the ruling party fell vacant after Rajnath Singh was appointed the Union Home Minister in Modi's Cabinet.

Senior leaders of BJP's ideological patron Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) earlier held a discussion over the issue in Rajasthan's Chittor.

Shah, a  general secretary of the BJP, has been accused in fake encounter cases but he rubbished them as false and orchestrated by Opposition.

In the Lok Sabha polls, Shah was in charge of Uttar Pradesh from where BJP won big time.
