State BJP makes key org appts & all of them bear the RSS-link

Bhopal: State BJP President Hemant Khandelwal on Saturday made more appointments in the organisation after consultation with party national president JP Nadda. The state unit on Saturday appointed the chiefs of two major frontal organisations – the MP Yuva Morcha (the party's youth wing) and the state BJP Mahila Morcha for the party.Former district Yuva Morcha president of Shajapur, Shyam Tailor, was appointed as the new state Yuva Morcha president. Khandelwal also appointed Ashwini Paranjape as the new Mahila Morcha president. Paranjape was the state general secretary of the Mahila Morcha, then became the district Mahila Morcha president in Jabalpur and was elevated to head the state BJP women's wing. Earlier, she too was an ABVP activist.Hemant Khandelwal made three more important appointments within the organisation on Saturday. Manoranjan Mishra was given the responsibility as in-charge of all six BJP morchas, including the Yuva Morcha, Mahila Morcha, Kisan Morcha, OBC Morcha, SC Morcha, and ST Morcha. Ashutosh Tiwari was appointed as the in-charge of all 30 cells of the state party, including the Chikitsa Prokost (the medical cell), Vidha Prokosht (the legal cell), and Byapar Protosht (business cell) for the party.Both Manoranjan Mishra and Ashutosh Tiwari have been attached to the RSS. Another person with an RSS background appointed to an organisational duty is Jitendra Litoria, who was made in-charge of BJP office management.All the appointments made so far by state BJP chief Hemant Khandelwal have seen the predominance of RSS-linked party workers. Whether the office bearers' appointments made last month or the in-charges of departments and cells, at least 50% of the new appointees are with Sangh-connected backgrounds. In the last week of October, Khandelwal made 25 appointments of state-level office-bearers, 14 of them had the imprint of the RSS. Most of the remaining appointments have distinct political beginnings in the ABVP (the BJP student's wing).
