After being appointed BJP's Uttar Pradesh unit in-charge in May 2013, party president Amit Shah travelled about 93,000 kms over the year in the state and visited 52 districts, a new book on the political journey of the leader claims.
This massive exercise by Shah resulted in the BJP winning 71 seats in the 2014 Lok Sabha elections compared to 10 seats in 2009, the book says.
The book 'Amit Shah aur Bhajapa ki Yatra' (The journey of Amit Shah and BJP) is sponsored by the Syama Prasad Mookerjee Research Foundation (SPMRF), a think tank affiliated to the BJP, and published by Bloomsbury.
