BM Sandeep Appointed Congress In-Charge of Telangana, Replacing Meenakshi Natarajan
The All India Congress Committee (AICC) has appointed BM Sandeep as the new in-charge of Telangana, replacing Meenakshi Natarajan with immediate effect. Natarajan, a former Lok Sabha MP, is reportedly stepping back to pursue higher studies abroad. Sandeep, from Karnataka, previously held organisational roles in Maharashtra, Gujarat, and Kerala. The party officially acknowledged Natarajan's contributions while announcing the leadership change, which coincides with Rahul Gandhi's visit to Hyderabad for the Bharat Summit 2026.
