The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has announced a revamp of its organisational structure in Kerala and appointed Advocate Vinod Wilson Mathew as the new president of its Kerala unit and PC Cyriac as National Joint Secretary. The party has also appointed two state vice presidents, one state general secretary, two state secretaries, one state treasurer, 10 different wing presidents, and 14 district presidents.
Kerala’s political party has decided to reorganise and add new members following the local body elections. AAP would run in three panchayat wards and one block panchayat ward in Kerala in the upcoming local body polls, according to Vinod Mathew Wilson, the party’s then-State election in-charge, who made the announcement in February of this year. Additionally, he stated that the party would succeed in these seats and establish a presence in Kerala.
Wilson further said that the AAP National Committee has decided to find new faces who can influence Kerala and bring them to the leadership of the party in Kerala. He added that such names will be announced soon.
Wilson also highlighted that the party had already held protests across Kerala, including the Raj Bhavan March, against the issue and issues related to the budget. He said that AAP’s new organisational structure in Kerala will soon be in place.
It is believed that the AAP’s move to reorganize its organizational structure in Kerala is a step towards extending its influence in South India. The party’s debut in Kerala politics could present a challenge to the state’s established political figures.
