Overview
- The BJP announced a full list of state in‑charges and co‑in‑charges that took effect immediately, a move the party formalised in a circular circulated by national office in‑charge Tarun Chugh.
- The appointments, which on Wednesday, September 23, 2026, covered all 28 states and eight Union Territories, give several senior leaders dual or multiple portfolios including Smriti Irani (Haryana and Chhattisgarh), Ram Madhav (Tamil Nadu and Uttarakhand) and Vinod Tawde (Uttar Pradesh).
- The party reconstituted dedicated organisational teams for seven states with 2027 polls — Uttar Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Punjab, Goa, Manipur, Gujarat and Himachal Pradesh — to focus candidate selection, ground mobilisation and campaign strategy.
- National communication and media roles were reshaped to centralise messaging, with Anil Baluni elevated as communication coordinator and Ashish Usha Agrawal made convenor of the national media department.
- The reshuffle was followed on September 24 by a further realignment of organisational secretaries to strengthen in‑state implementation, a step that tightens centre‑to‑state coordination and could speed up campaign planning and social media operations.
