Days after the Congress suffered a third straight Assembly election defeat since the 2024 Lok Sabha polls, the party Friday implemented a major organisational shakeup which bore the imprint of senior leader Rahul Gandhi.
It appointed general secretaries for two states and in-charges for nine, removing six leaders who held these positions.
The Congress brought in former Chhattisgarh chief minister Bhupesh Baghel into the AICC secretariat, also appointing him its Punjab general secretary. Rajya Sabha MP Syed Naseer Hussain was made the general secretary in charge of Jammu & Kashmir and Ladakh.
