RSS functionary Arun Kumar has been appointed as general secretary (organisation) of the BJP state unit.
The RSS on Saturday had announced some changes in its internal arrangement for the state and deputed Kumar to the BJP.
The post of BJP state general secretary (Organisation) has been vacant for one year after incumbent Santhosh was elevated to the national level. The post assumes significance as it has a major say in deciding key issues in the party and reports directly to the party national president. Kumar is a mechanical engineer from Regional Engineering College (Now NITK), Surthkal and has been associated with the RSS for more than two decades.
