As RSS Takes A Tough Stand, BJP Drags Its Feet In Finding A New Chief In Kerala

With the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) playing hard ball embittered by the shifting of Kummanam Rajasekharan as Mizoram Governor, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is finding it difficult to find a new chief for its Kerala unit. Rajasekharan was the Kerala unit chief before he was made Mizoram governor, surprising everyone. The RSS is upset with the move since Rajasekharan was deputed by the organisation to help the BJP in Kerala and it was not consulted on the issue.
The problem for the BJP is that its state committee cannot meet without a president, per its constitution. Senior national leaders H Raja and Nalin Kumar Kateel are trying to find a solution, with BJP’s national secretary B L Santhosh too chipping in by discussing the issue with the RSS.

The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
