BM Sandeep named new Telangana AICC in-charge

The Congress high command sprang a surprise on Saturday by appointing BM Sandeep as the new AICC in-charge of Telangana, replacing Meenakshi Natarajan. The appointment takes effect immediately. AICC General Secretary KC Venugopal issued a press release to this effect soon after the conclusion of the



Bharat Summit in the city.

Meenakshi Natarajan has been in the news since June 2026 after her nomination to the Rajya Sabha was rejected by the Returning Officer in Madhya Pradesh. The rejection followed her failure to disclose a pending complaint against her before a private court.
