The All India Congress Committee (AICC) unveiled a significant leadership revamp on Tuesday, with Congress president approving the appointment of 45 National Coordinators for the Scheduled Caste (SC) Department, effective immediately.

The list spans geographical diversity, with representatives such as Sukhvinder Singh Kotli from Punjab and N Preetham from the South, showcasing a nationwide outreach.
The team also features legal luminaries like Adv. Rahul Raj and Adv CV Santha Kumar, alongside social activists such as Dakxin Bajrange Chhara and Ajay Paswan, reflect a mix of professional and community-driven expertise.
The inclusion of women leaders like Reena Valmiki, Harshita Gandhi, and Ashwini Khobragade highlights the party’s emphasis on gender equity within its ranks.
The Congress President has approved the appointment of key leaders for the Unorganised Workers and Employees Congress (KKC), effective immediately, as announced today.
The new appointees include Vice Chairpersons Ramesh Kumar Yadav and Nawab Shaik Ibrahim, Secretary Shahid Ali, and Regional Coordinator Dr Anshu J Anthony.
State Chairpersons appointed are Thoudam John Singh for Manipur and Chilambarasan for Puducherry.
This move, aimed at strengthening the party’s outreach to unorganised workers, reflects a strategic focus on regional representation.
The appointments signal a renewed effort to address the concerns of this vital workforce segment ahead of future political engagements.
Further details are awaited from the AICC leadership.
This restructuring comes as the Congress party aims to rejuvenate its organisational framework. Venugopal’s office hinted at forthcoming details regarding the coordinators’ specific roles.
