Kailash Vijayvargiya (born 13 May 1956) is an Indian politician serving as National General Secretary of Bharatiya Janata Party.[1] He started his political career in the Indore Bharatiya Janata Party, and was the mayor of Indore, a six-time legislator and a state government cabinet minister for over 12 years before being elevated to the party's central leadership.[2]
Vijayvargiya was made in charge of BJP's election campaign for Haryana in 2014,[3] after which BJP gained a majority in the assembly election. This victory allowed him to gain a more central role in party leadership, and in June 2015 he was appointed national general secretary by party president Amit Shah,[4] and the new leader of the BJP in West Bengal.[5]
