The party also named four state coordinators and kept Anil Baluni as media convenor while reshaping its wider social media and leadership team.
- On Monday, the BJP reshuffled its social media unit and leadership team, replacing Amit Malviya after his 11-year tenure steering the party's digital outreach strategy.

- Vasundhara Raje Scindia, Ram Madhav, Baijayant Jay Panda, and Manpreet Singh Badal are among 13 new vice-presidents. Smriti Irani returns to the team alongside Biplab Kumar Deb.
- The BJP simultaneously rebuilt its social media unit, naming four coordinators: Preeti Gandhi , Shivanand Dwivedi , Alok Bhatt , and Arun Yadav . Anil Baluni remains as media convenor.
- Among the eight general secretaries, Vinod Tawde and Sunil Bansal are the only holdovers. The BJP appointed new secretaries including Kavita Patidar, Surendran, Sandeep Pathak, and Manoj Tigga across states.
