B.M. Sandeep from Karnataka appointed new AICC in-charge of Telangana

HYDERABAD Senior Congress leader B.M. Sandeep from Karnataka has been appointed the All India Congress Committee (AICC) in-charge of Telangana, replacing Meenakshi Natarajan, with immediate effect. In a press release issued on Saturday, AICC general secretary K.C. Venugopal announced the appointment and conveyed the party’s appreciation for the contributions of Ms.

Natarajan, who had been overseeing its affairs in Telangana. Ms. Natarajan, a former Lok Sabha member from Mandsaur in Madhya Pradesh, is reportedly planning to proceed to the United Kingdom on a two-year study leave. However, the party’s official communication did not specify the reason for her replacement.

Mr. Sandeep, who hails from Chikkamagaluru in Karnataka, began his political career with the Indian Youth Congress (IYC) and subsequently held several organisational positions in the party. He previously served as the national convener and Karnataka State convener of the Rajiv Gandhi Panchayati Raj Sangathan.
