Chandigarh: The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has retained Manthri Srinivasulu as its general secretary (organisation) for Punjab, keeping him in charge of the party’s cadre network ahead of the 2027 assembly elections.Srinivasulu, a senior RSS functionary, was first assigned to Punjab in July 2022 after moving from Telangana. Since then, he has spearheaded the party’s grassroots expansion efforts following its split with long-time ally Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) over the now-repealed farm laws.The decision ensures continuity in the organisational machinery following leadership shifts earlier this year, which saw Kewal Singh Dhillon take over as Punjab BJP president and Satish Poonia appointed as party in charge for the state.As general secretary (organisation), the RSS nominee plays a vital role in managing party cadre, coordinating booth-level operations, and aligning organisational strategies across the state.
