Congress president Rahul Gandhi on Friday appointed Keshav Chand Yadav as national president and Srinivas B.V. as national vice president of the Indian Youth Congress (IYC).
Mr. Yadav succeeds Amrinder Singh Raja Brar, who had been holding the post for over three-and-a-half years now.
Mr. Brar, at present an MLA in Punjab, took charge as the Youth Congress chief in December 2014 after the party suffered its worst defeat in the Lok Sabha elections.
He is said to have aggressively revived the Youth Congress campaign.
