BJP overhauls key organisational posts, Baluni continues as media head
Pradeep Bhandari, Ashish Agarwal, and Sidharth Yadav to be co-convenors for media
BJP national president has overhauled two major rungs of the party organisation — national secretaries and morcha chiefs — but has left the leadership of the media department untouched.
Anil Baluni, a veteran of the BJP media cell with over nine years of experience in the segment, will continue to lead this key department at a time when BJP is facing a challenge to its narrative from the opposition.
Baluni, the Garhwal Lok Sabha MP, enjoys the trust of both Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah.
He will be assisted in the role by three newly appointed co-convenors for media: Pradeep Bhandari, currently the national spokesperson of BJP; Ashish Agarwal, media in-charge for Madhya Pradesh BJP; and Sidharth Yadav from Delhi, who is the son of BJP Parliamentary Board member Sudha Yadav.
