Around 200 members from Muslim Community, majority of females joined the BJP under the leadership of Naaz Rana in the presence of state BJP President of Chandigarh, Arun Sood at Mauli Jagran. Arun Sood welcomed all of them with saffron BJP robes. Addressing them Arun Sood said, Congress and other so-called secular political parties have used Muslim Community as their vote bank and did very little for their upliftment. He said, Social, economic and educational conditions of Muslims deteriorated under Congress Governments. Mr. Sood said, PM Narendra Modi's Government with sabka saath, sabka vikas mantra has ensured every citizen irrespective of their religion gets the fruits of development. Today due to many welfare programmes for women by the Modi Govt, many Muslim women from rural areas are joining BJP. He said, BJP has brought many programs for the upliftment of weaker sections of society.
 
Mr. Sood said Vishvakarma Yojna launched last week by the Prime Minister will greatly benefit Artisans and skilled workers too in the country.
