Why certain ministers are miffed in the Modi cabinet

November 10, 2014 12:48

Here's the buzz on the new union cabinet.

Rajiv Pratap Rudy, the Union Minister for Skill Development may have been handed a new portfolio but there is no office he can work out of. In the last six months of the Modi government, nobody seems to have found the time to fix office space. Rudy, justifiably, is miffed.

The top three of the government -- PM Modi, BJP president Amit Shah and finance minister Arun Jaitley have been talking about the need for organisational changes in the party to be effected by the new year. Seniors including LK Advani and Rajnath Singh feel that the BJP needs a complete revamp and the union ministers should visit the BJP office on a weekly basis.

In the aftermath of the union cabinet reshuffle, Ravi Shankar Prasad, Nirmala Sitaraman and Dr Harsh Vardhan have been sulking as feel they have not been properly treated by the party.
