The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has invited developmental suggestions from various sections of society for incorporating them in the manifesto for the November 20 Maharashtra assembly election 2024, reported the PTI.


The draft plan for the "inclusive and dynamic" development of Maharashtra will be included in the manifesto.


The BJP has appealed to social workers, farmers, journalists, doctors, professors, teachers, engineers, businessmen, technicians, women activists and others to submit their suggestions, BJP's poll manifesto committee president Sudhir Mungantiwar stated on Monday, according to the PTI.


"You are an expert and practitioner in an important area of society. We intend to utilise your experience, knowledge, and expertise to develop Maharashtra," it said.

The draft plan for all-inclusive and dynamic development is inspired by PM Modi's "spectacular achievements" in various sectors that earned India a place of honour on the global stage, the party said.
