Former Union minister Jagdish Tytler has been appointed AICC incharge for Bihar in place of Iqbal Singh, who was recently appointed lieutenant-governor of Puducherry.
Tytler, a veteran of Delhi politics, was given a Congress ticket for the Delhi North-East Lok Sabha seat. But he was dropped as the party candidate after a Sikh journalist hurled a shoe at home minister P Chidambaram on the anti-Sikh riots issue.
Tytler's appointemnt has raised doubts about the timing of the much-delayed revamp of the Congress organisational set-up. The appointment indicates that Congress appears to have deferred the larger shake-up.
