The BJP has announced a major organisational reshuffle, bringing former Union Minister Smriti Irani back into the party's national leadership as a general secretary. The leadership shake-up also reallocates responsibilities for prominent leaders including Piyush Goyal and Amit Malviya, who lost his position as the party's social media convenor. Alongside the party changes, Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Vijay completed 100 days in office, marked by a full farm loan waiver worth Rs 75,000. Meanwhile, Maharashtra's food-safety crackdown in Pune reported high compliance among sweet shops while maintaining penalties of up to Rs 5 lakh for violations. The report does not specify the broader timeline for implementing the rest of the BJP's newly assigned roles.
