Besides 80 regular members, the executive will also have 50 special invitees and 179 permanent invitees.
The executive is a key deliberative body of the party which meets to discuss key issues facing the government and shapes the organisation’s agenda.
The disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic has prevented its meeting for a long time.
Many Union ministers, including Amit Shah, Rajnath Singh, are expectedly on the list with recently inducted minister Ashwini Vaishnaw also being included.
Former Union ministers like Harsh Vardhan, Ravi Shankar Prasad and Prakash Javadekar also remain the members of the national executive.
