BJP President Amit Shah has informally constituted a high-level committee with Arun Jaitley, Venkaiah Naidu and Bhupender Yadav, to study, liaise and coordinate various issues relating to the election of the President of India. This informal committee is expected to meet after Arun Jaitley returns from the USA.

The committee will idenfity and prioritise the list of dos and don'ts for the BJP on the upcoming election of the President like voting patterns and proportional representation apart from interacting with political parties which are neutral like the AIADMK, YSR Congress party and the Telangana Rashtra Samhiti. These parties are key to a BJP candidate winning the Presidential polls.
