Piyush Goyal Appointed BJP National Treasurer Amid Organizational Reshuffle
The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has appointed Union Commerce and Industry Minister Piyush Goyal as its national treasurer in a significant organizational reshuffle announced by party president Nitin Nabin. While Goyal retains his ministerial portfolio, his new party role has sparked speculation about a possible Cabinet reshuffle, given the BJP's informal 'one person, one post' principle. However, no official confirmation has been made, and Goyal continues to lead key trade negotiations, including the India-US Free Trade Agreement talks.
