He further stated that throughout his distinguished public life, Tarun Chugh has successfully discharged responsibilities at every level of the organization, including the Mandal, District, State and National levels. His phenomenal rise embodies the BJP’s philosophy of nurturing grassroots workers and providing opportunities based solely on merit and commitment.
Grewal said that earlier, Tarun Chugh had served as Punjab State President of the Bharatiya Janata Yuva Morcha, and after Tarun Chugh moved on to higher organizational responsibilities, he himself was entrusted by the party with the responsibility of serving as Punjab State President of the Bharatiya Janata Yuva Morcha. He said that this association makes Tarun Chugh’s elevation to the Rajya Sabha particularly special and inspiring for him personally.

Grewal said that under the visionary leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the strategic guidance of Amit Shah, Tarun Chugh was entrusted with several significant responsibilities at the national level. His exceptional performance, unwavering commitment and outstanding organizational skills earned him the confidence and admiration of the party leadership, culminating in his appointment as BJP National General Secretary.
He further said that for more than a decade, Tarun Chugh has played a pivotal role in strengthening the BJP organization across Jammu and Kashmir, Ladakh, Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu and the Andaman and Nicobar Islands. His relentless efforts, dynamic leadership and close interaction with party workers have significantly contributed to the party’s growth and expansion in these regions.
Grewal said that the BJP leadership’s decision to nominate Tarun Chugh to the Rajya Sabha sends a powerful message across the nation that loyalty, dedication and hard work are always recognized and rewarded in the Bharatiya Janata Party. The decision further strengthens the faith of ordinary workers that their sincere efforts and sacrifices for the organization will always receive due recognition.
He said that Punjab has every reason to celebrate this proud achievement. As a distinguished son of Punjab, Tarun Chugh has consistently worked to strengthen the organization and safeguard national interests. His presence in the Rajya Sabha will provide Punjab with a powerful, experienced and influential voice capable of effectively raising issues relating to development, border security, industry, trade, youth welfare, employment generation, agriculture, and national integration.
Grewal described Tarun Chugh’s elevation to the Upper House of Parliament as a historic and proud moment for every BJP worker and every nationalist Indian. He said that it serves as a resounding reminder that dedication to the nation and steadfast commitment to organizational values remain the strongest pillars of leadership within the Bharatiya Janata Party.
Expressing complete confidence in Tarun Chugh’s abilities, Grewal said that he will continue to serve Bharat with the same honesty, humility, commitment and spirit of selfless service that have characterized his public life for decades. His vast organizational experience and deep understanding of national issues, he said, will undoubtedly make him an effective and influential voice in Parliament.
