Kiran Singh Deo appointed as Chhattisgarh State President:
Meanwhile, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has appointed Kiran Singh Deo as its State President in Chhattisgarh. The party's national general secretary, Arun Singh, issued a notice in this regard.
"Bharatiya Janata Party's National President, JP Nadda, has appointed Kiran Singh Deo as the Chhattisgarh party president. The appointment will come into force with immediate effect," the party said today (December 21).
Deo was pitted against Congress's Jateen Jaiswal from the Jagdalpur assembly constituency, and the former secured victory by a margin of 29,834 votes. Deo kicked off his political career by being a part of the Bharatiya Janata Yuva Morcha (BJYM).
Jagdalpur is the only unreserved seat in the Bastar region. He is set to replace Arun Sao, who was sworn in as the Deputy Chief Minister. Along with Sao, Vijay Sharma also took the oath as the Deputy CM. Of the 90 assembly constituencies in Chhattisgarh that went to polls last month, the BJP bagged 54 seats, while the Congress's tally was reduced to 35.
