His work as MP has also been appreciated. Am sure under his leadership the Gujarat BJP will scale newer heights (sic)," Modi tweeted.

Paatil is a Lok Sabha MP from Navsari in Gujarat and is known for using technology effectively to nurse his constituency and for keeping a low profile. He has been appointed in place of Jitu Vaghani, who completed his tenure as party's Gujarat unit president.

The BJP appointed Paatil and Jamyang Tsering Namgyal, both Lok Sabha MPs, as presidents of its Gujarat and Ladakh units."

BJP national president Jagat Prakash Nadda has appointed Paatil and Jamyang Tsering Namgyal as president of Gujarat and Ladakh BJP units respectively," said a statement issued by BJP national general secretary Arun Singh.
