Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is considered to be the biggest political party in the country. The party dominates the Lok Sabha and the state assemblies of many states. In such a situation, this question often comes to people's mind that how much salary does the party's biggest leader, i.e. the BJP's national president, get? And what facilities does he have?
First of all, it is important to understand that the post of BJP President is not a government post, that is, it is not a constitutional post. Therefore, he is not given any fixed salary by the government. The party itself pays salary and other facilities to the BJP President from its own funds. However, the post of the party president is so influential that it can be compared to the power of a Union Minister. But there is definitely a difference in terms of salary and allowances.
How much is the salary?
No official data has been released on this by the party. But according to some media reports, the BJP national president is given an honorarium of Rs 1 lakh to Rs 1.5 lakh every month. Apart from this, a separate budget is given for other expenses.
What facilities are available?
The BJP president not only gets salary but also many other facilities which make his work easier. The party provides a luxurious residence which is fully furnished. The president is given government security and a car with driver round the clock. He gets Z category security.
The party takes the responsibility of travel, hotel, food and other expenses incurred for party work across the country. A complete staff, PA, advisors and media team are provided for the work. At present, the national president of BJP is JP Nadda.
