BJP president Amit Shah, who was scheduled to address the inaugural session of the two-day convention, did not turn up owing to "pressing political engagements" in Delhi and was represented by union minister Kalraj Mishra.
Terming the SP government as "incompetent and anti-people", Mishra asked workers to spread out in the state and inform people of the work initiated by the Narendra Modi-led central government and work to get back the lost glory of the party in UP.
Mathura MP Hema Malini and many other senior leaders did not attend the meet.
