Overview

  • The party announced a fresh state organisational team on Thursday that lists 19 vice-presidents, eight general secretaries and 19 secretaries, replacing all six regional presidents.
  • High‑profile appointments include Neeraj Singh and former Samajwadi Party MLA Pooja Pal as vice-presidents and the replacement of Pankaj Singh from the previous lineup.
  • State president Pankaj Chaudhary prepared the list after consultations with Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath and central leaders, indicating coordinated state‑center planning.
  • The reshuffle raises OBC representation, increases women and younger leaders in leadership roles, and assigns new regional presidents to sharpen local outreach.
  • The move keeps senior communications figures in place—Dinesh Pratap Singh as chief spokesperson and Manish Dixit as media coordinator—and signals active poll preparation ahead of rival parties' organisational changes.
