The Bharatiya Janata Party on Friday announced a new team of states’ in-charge, with an apparent focus on states where elections are due.

The party’s Information Technology Cell chief Amit Malviya will now assist Kailash Vijayvargiya, who will continue to be in charge of West Bengal. Assembly elections in the state are scheduled to take place in 2021. The saffron party is looking forward to unseat the Mamata Banerjee-led government.

BJP Vice-President Radha Mohan Singh was made the in-charge of Uttar Pradesh, while National General Secretary Arun Singh was given the charge of Karnataka. Singh will replace Murlidhar Rao, who will now take charge of Madhya Pradesh.

Karnataka Minister CT Ravi was given charge of poll-bound Tamil Nadu, Maharashtra and Goa.

Bhupendra Yadav, meanwhile, will continue to handle Bihar, where the BJP and its allies won the Assembly elections on November 10. He will also look after Gujarat. BJP national secretaries Harish Dwivedi and Anupam Hazra will assist him.
