BJP appoints Assembly in-charges ahead of Uttarakhand polls

Days after BJP chief JP Nadda's two-day visit, the party's Uttarakhand unit has shifted to poll mode with the appointment of Assembly in-charges. One senior leader has been given the responsibility for one Assembly seat.

BJP Uttarakhand president Madan Kaushik approved the list of in-charges. A total of 70 senior leaders have been made in-charge for the same number of Assembly segments. Sources said that these Assembly in-charges will take stock of the ground situation and forward it to the state leadership. "They will also oversee the execution of state leadership decisions and strategy at the ground till the election," they said. According to a party functionary, an in-charge plays an important role in each and every activity in the Assembly seat and ensures coordination at all levels.
