Similarly, a list of functionaries who will look after block committees has been released.
Both the lists bear signatures of Delhi Pradesh Congress Committee President Sheila Dikshit dated July 8.
The rejig comes days after Dikshit on June 28 dissolved all the 280 block committees, a decision which was later stayed by All India Congress Committee (AICC) in-charge of Delhi unit, PC Chacko.
The to-and-for had triggered cracks in the Delhi unit of the grand old party.
