New Delhi: Ahead of the assembly poll in Karnataka, the BJP on Saturday appointed Union Minister Dharmendra Pradhan its in-charge for the polls.
Tamil Nadu BJP unit president K Annamalai will be the co-in charge for the high-stakes polls where both the ruling party and the opposition Congress have launched intensive public outreach for the elections likely to be held in April-May.
Dharmendra Pradhan, a veteran organisation man of the party, has been tasked with handling several elections in the past.
A skilful politician, he will be expected to mobilise the state organisation while sorting out internal issues in the local unit to maximise efforts to retain power in the important southern state.
