Piyush Goyal Appointed BJP National Treasurer Amid Cabinet Reshuffle Speculation
The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has appointed Union Commerce and Industry Minister Piyush Goyal as its national treasurer in a major organizational reshuffle under party president Nitin Nabin. While Goyal retains his Cabinet portfolio, his new party role has sparked speculation about a possible Cabinet reshuffle, given the BJP's 'one person, one post' convention. Goyal continues to lead key trade negotiations with the United States, and the appointment may also reflect the party's intent to leverage his organizational experience.
