Kiran Singh Deo has been re-elected as the Chhattisgarh BJP State President. The announcement was made by BJP National General Secretary Vinod Tawde during the State President election programme held at the party’s state headquarters, Kushabhau Thackeray Complex. With this declaration, the BJP’s state organisational elections have been concluded. Expressing gratitude for the trust placed in him, the newly- appointed State President thanked the National President and senior leaders of the party.
 
“I am honoured to have been given another opportunity to serve with the vision and determination I handled this position until now,” he said. Singh Deo also highlighted the achievements of his concluded tenure such as completing the membership campaign target of 60 lakh members and uniting the party to secure victories in Lok Sabha and by-elections. The formal announcement of Kiran Singh Deo’s appointment was made in the presence of senior party leaders, including Chief Minister Vishnu Deo Sai, State In-charge Nitin Nabin, and other BJP officeb bearers and leaders. Speaking, Vinod Tawde revealed that three nominations were received for the post, but all were filed in support of Kiran Singh Deo.
 
Tawde praised Singh Deo’s long-standing contributions to the party, which began during his student politics days. Singh Deo’s political journey started in 1985 when he became the President of the Student Union. Over the years, he has held several key positions in the BJP, including District President (2002–2005), State General Secretary (2005–2009), and member of the State Working Committee (till 2014). He also served as the Mayor of Jagdalpur Municipal Corporation from 2009 to 2014. Born on September 17, 1962, Singh Deo, a lawyer by profession, contested the Jagdalpur Assembly seat in the 2023 elections, where he defeated Congress candidate Jatin Jaiswal to become an MLA for the first time. His reappointment as State President marks a new chapter in his political journey and also reflects the party’s confidence in his leadership. Addressing the gathering, Singh Deo vowed to work with renewed energy and commitment, emphasizing the need for collective effort to strengthen the party further in the state.
