Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who has relentlessly centralised power in the prime ministers office, and has held his cards close to his chest, is considering a cabinet reshuffle in June, say sources.

First up, Modi is believed to have decided on deputing three of his senior Union Ministers -- Najma Heptullah, Kalraj Mishra and M Venkaiah Naidu -- as governors by early June.

According to highly-placed sources, Heptullah may be sent to Himachal Pradesh and Mishra to Kerala. Naidu is likely to be sent to Tamil Nadu when K Rosaiah retires in July 2016. By that time, the Tamil Nadu assembly elections would have ended.

P Sathasivam, who is serving as the governor of Kerala is being moved out once the state elections end.  Meanwhile, Naidu's Rajya Sabha term will end in June 2016. As the Urban Development minister, Naidu helms the Smart City initiative and the PM will have to find someone to replace him from a pool of candidates that is short on experience.

The PM has plans to move a few others for the BJP's organisational programmes. Interestingly, a cabinet reshuffle was expected before the Budget session, but due to pressures from many quarters it has been postponed. It is now certain that soon after the Budget session is over, Modi will not only usher in new inductions, but also portfolio changes.

The 'chemistry' between the PM and BJP president Amit Shah is still working well despite the debacle in Delhi and Bihar, and it is believed that Modi reposes the most confidence in Shah.

So, come June, the party will get a major facelift. Till then, plans of appointing new general secretaries and office bearers will be kept pending.
