In a big organizational change, the BJP on Tuesday named Union minister G Kishan Reddy, Sunil Jakhar, and Babulal Marandi its president in Telangana, Punjab, and Jharkhand respectively.
In a statement, the party also announced former Union minister D Purandeswari as its new Andhra Pradesh president and brought in OBC leader Etela Rajender as its election management committee chairperson in the poll-bound Telangana.
The development highlights the BJP's emphasis to set its house in order in Telangana where many relatively new but powerful entrants to the party were against the leadership of Bandi Sanjay Kumar.
Sources said Kumar may be inducted as a minister in the central government in a reshuffle in the coming days.
