Ashok Malik to India Today: 'This is a generational shift for the BJP' with Nitin Naveen
UPDATED: Jan 19, 2026 23:14 IST
Ashok Malik, Partner and Chair of the Asia Group, analyzes the appointment of Nitin Naveen as the new BJP President in an interview with India Today. Malik describes the move as a significant 'generational shift' for the party, noting that Naveen is the first BJP president born after the party's founding in 1980. Addressing Naveen's relatively low profile in Delhi media circles, Malik argues that Indian politics exists far beyond the capital, drawing parallels to former president Kushabhau Thakre. He emphasizes that Naveen should not be judged solely on immediate upcoming state elections in places like Kerala, but rather on his ability to revitalize the party organization while it is in power. Malik points out the challenge of leading a ruling party when much of its talent is concentrated in the government, suggesting that Naveen's success will depend on bringing new ideas from the grassroots to overcome organizational inertia over the next few years.
