Kerala leader Abdulla Kutty is another member from the minority community on the list.<\/p>\n<p>The appointment of former Aligarh Muslim University (AMU) Vice-Chancellor Tariq Mansoor, now a BJP MLC in Uttar Pradesh, is being seen to be part of the party&#8217;s overtures to Pasmanda (backward) Muslims.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Ravi&#8217;s omission from the list of general secretaries, who spearhead the party&#8217;s policies and agenda nationally and state-wise, unlike the vice presidents who are mostly figureheads, is being seen by some as a fallout of the BJP&#8217;s big defeat in the recent assembly polls in Karnataka.<\/p>\n<p>The four-term MLA had lost his seat in a close fight in the recently held assembly polls in Karnataka.<\/p>\n<p>However, a party leader said not much should be read into the dropping of several office-bearers, as many of them, including Ravi, may contest the 2024 Lok Sabha polls and will be focussing on their likely constituencies.<\/p>\n<p>The appointment of Bandi Sanjay weeks after his removal as the Telangana BJP president is a signal to the party cadres that he remains valuable to the national leadership, and that his ouster was a tactical call taken in the context of political realities in the southern state, sources said.<\/p>\n<p>Former Chief Ministers Raman Singh, Vasundhara Raje, and Raghubar Das are among the seasoned leaders retained as Vice Presidents in the new list.<\/p>\n<p>Arun Singh, Kailash Vijayvargiya, Dushyant Kumar Gautam, Tarun Chugh, Sunil Bansal, and Vinod Tawde also continue as general secretaries.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Nadda&#8217;s tenure as BJP president was extended in January this year to allow him to be at the helm during the next Lok Sabha polls.<br \/>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><i>(Except for the headline, this story has not been edited by NDTV staff and is published from a syndicated feed.)<\/i><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>[ad_2]<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ndtv.com\/india-news\/as-bjp-rejigs-team-ex-aligarh-muslim-university-head-tariq-mansoor-gets-top-post-4250612\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[ad_1] Former Aligarh Muslim University Vice-Chancellor Tariq Mansoor appointed BJP Vice President New Delhi: BJP president JP Nadda rejigged the list of the party&#8217;s central office-bearers today, bringing in a Pasmanda Muslim from Uttar Pradesh as one of its Vice Presidents Former Telangana unit chief Bandi Sanjay Kumar was appointed national general secretary of the [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":351367,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[418582,418583,418584,66202,1648],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/haftavasool.com\/haftavasool\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/351366"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/haftavasool.com\/haftavasool\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/haftavasool.com\/haftavasool\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/haftavasool.com\/haftavasool\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/haftavasool.com\/haftavasool\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=351366"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/haftavasool.com\/haftavasool\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/351366\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/haftavasool.com\/haftavasool\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/351367"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/haftavasool.com\/haftavasool\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=351366"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/haftavasool.com\/haftavasool\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=351366"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/haftavasool.com\/haftavasool\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=351366"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
