Aligarh— In a major organizational reshuffle aimed at rejuvenating the Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) ahead of the 2027 Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections, BSP supremo and former Chief Minister Mayawati has appointed four new chief in-charges for the Aligarh division. The move signals the beginning of “Mission 2027,” with the party intensifying its grassroots preparations.
The newly appointed divisional in-charges are Naushad Ali (former MLC from Kannauj), Vikram Singh Jatav (Agra), Arvind Kumar Aditya (Aligarh), and Anil Kumar Baghel (Kasganj). Until now, the Aligarh division was being supervised by only two in-charges. With this expansion, Mayawati aims to strengthen organizational oversight and intensify the party’s presence at the booth level.
In addition to the chief in-charges, Arjun Swami and Chhatrapati Shivaji Nimkar have also been appointed as divisional in-charges, with responsibilities to coordinate district-level organizational work. The announcement was made while Aligarh district president Suresh Gautam was holding a crucial strategy meeting with office-bearers at his residence on Ramghat Road, focused on winning the upcoming Assembly elections.
During the meeting, key discussions were held around reviewing booth committees and strengthening sector-wise party organization. Naushad Ali, who had arrived from Agra, directed that the party proceed directly to village Madapur in the Atrauli constituency to expedite booth-level committee formation. Gautam later confirmed that the structural changes had not been communicated earlier, but were shared by party leaders as the developments unfolded.
Following the announcement, local workers welcomed the newly appointed leaders with garlands and accompanied them to Madapur. There, a grassroots meeting was held to formally constitute the local booth committee. Discussions revolved around the BSP’s developmental achievements during Mayawati’s tenure and the party’s continued struggle against injustice and exploitation of marginalized communities, including SCs, OBCs, youth, and farmers.
This organizational shake-up reflects Mayawati’s strategic recalibration as the BSP begins mobilizing cadres and rebuilding its electoral machinery at the ground level. The renewed focus on booth management, community outreach, and internal restructuring indicates that the BSP is gearing up for a high-stakes contest in 2027.
