Chief minister Narendra Modi and all state ministers have planned to attend the three-day BJP conclave at Indore from Februray 17 to 19.

Highly placed sources in the state government have stated that the chief minister and all the ministers of the state government will go to Madhya Pradesh fore the meet, though only Modi will be present on all three days. The other ministers will attend the event for two days.

Modi will attend the BJP national executive committee meeting on February 17 and also participate in the national council meet organised on other two days. Recently appointed state BJP president RC Faldu will accompany Modi on the first day with some key office bearers of the party in state. All the ministers, besides BJP MLAs, district presidents and key office bearers will attend the event on Februray 18 and 19, sources said.

Further stating that the conclave will probably be the biggest party meet after major debacle in last year's general elections and the first biggest event after Nitin Gadkari's appointment as new national president, sources said. Modi, who will introduce the new state BJP president, is likely to speak on rising inflation and growing security threats besides highlighting other failures of the present UPA government. However, nobody knows, sources confirm, about what the party's poster boy will say about the gradual weakening of the party structure nationally as well as regarding intra-party issues.

Fearing that the BJP's national conclave in Indore could be the target of a terror attack, the party is taking all precautionary steps to secure the venue and is likely lodge some of its senior leaders in hotels instead of tents. Some sections of the party feel that leaders like LK Advani, Narendra Modi, Chhattisgarh chief minister Raman Singh and party's former president Rajnath Singh along with other senior leaders should stay in hotels instead of tents.

However, allaying all fears, and showing solidarity, the Modi has decided to stay in tents with other party leaders, sources close to the CM said.

The Centre and the chief minister of MP has also assured fool-proof security for the event, where nearly 5,000 key BJP leaders from across the country will converge.
