After a big reshuffle in the organisatio, Ex-Congress leadr Jaiveer Shergill was appointed spokesperson by the BJP on Friday, as it announced new roles for several prominent leaders who have switched over from the grand old party. It also appointed former Punjab chief minister Amrinder Singh and Sunil Jakhar as well as its former Uttar Pradesh leader Swatantra Dev Singh as members of its national executive, the party said in a statement. Madan Kaushik, Vishnu Deo Sai, its former presidents of Uttarakhand and Chhattisgarh respectively, Rana Gurmit Singh Sodhi, Manoranjan Kalia and Amanjot Kaur Ramoowalia, all three from Punjab, have been made special invitees to the national executive, the party said.
The Congress has lost several leaders while struggling with election defeats and an organisational drift over the past few years. An exodus started in 2020 with the exit of Jyotiraditya Scindia, who is now a Union Minister, and UP minister Jitin Prasada. This year, former Union Ministers Kapil Sibal, Ashwani Kumar and RPN Singh quit the party
