The Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) on Sunday introduced a key organisational change by making its joint general secretary Arun Kumar the interface for political issues and also coordinator with the BJP.

He replaced another joint general secretary Krishana Gopal who held the charge since 2015. The change was announced in an ongoing meeting of RSS full-timers at Chitarkoot in Madhya Pradesh. When contacted, RSS Prachar Pramukh Sunil Ambekar confirmed the development and said Arun Kumar will be the Sangh's coordinator for political issues including with BJP.
