New Delhi, 6th Sep: A two-day “karyashala” (workshop) of BJP MPs will begin on Sunday at the Parliament complex, where Prime Minister Narendra Modi is likely to be felicitated for the landmark GST reforms announced recently.

While the workshop had been planned earlier, sources said PM Modi may now attend and be honoured by MPs for the new GST slab structure, which the BJP claims will ease the tax burden on people and strengthen the economy. Party leaders are optimistic that the public response to falling prices of several goods will translate into political momentum ahead of the Bihar assembly elections scheduled for November.

The workshop will feature sessions on the BJP’s history, evolution, and strategies for parliamentarians to boost efficiency.

On Monday, Prime Minister Modi will also host a dinner for BJP and NDA MPs, a day before the vice-presidential election. The contest will see NDA nominee and Maharashtra Governor C.P. Radhakrishnan face off against Opposition candidate B. Sudarshan Reddy, a former Supreme Court judge, with the ruling alliance comfortably placed in terms of numbers.
