Sword hanging on 12 faces in the cabinet, there will be ‘lottery’ on vacant posts
There are currently 54 ministers in the cabinet of Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, whereas according to the rules this number can go up to 60. That means 6 posts are completely vacant at present. Discuss that in detail:
Leave of half a dozen ministers: About 6 existing ministers may be removed from their posts or may be given new responsibilities in the organization.
Entry of new faces: About a dozen new faces may get a chance in place of the six vacant posts and the ministers who are to be removed.
Yogi’s choice is paramount: This time in the reshuffle, special care is being taken of the choice of Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, so that there is better harmony in the team before the 2027 elections.
Caste and regional balance: Focus on Brahmins and OBCs
After the results of Lok Sabha Elections 2024 and the recent survey (SIR), BJP does not want to take any risk now.
Efforts to remove the resentment of Brahmins: In view of the alleged resentment among the Brahmin community in UP, some prominent Brahmin faces can be given big responsibility in the organization and government.
Preference for Western UP: Since both the Chief Minister and the State President come from Eastern UP (Purvanchal), the participation of Western Uttar Pradesh can be increased in the cabinet expansion.
OBC equation: After Pankaj Chaudhary (Kurmi community) becoming the president, now some more ministers from the same category can be sworn in to strengthen the hold among the OBC castes.
The effect of change will be visible in the organization also
Before the cabinet expansion, the party is planning to adjust its senior workers and leaders in various corporations, commissions and boards. Recently, the appointment of nominated members in municipal bodies is considered to be a part of this exercise. Its purpose is that no factionalism or resentment should arise at the time of cabinet expansion.
The clear aim of BJP is to create history by taking a hat-trick of power in 2027. The ‘Marathon Exercise’ that has been going on from Lucknow to Delhi for the last one month may soon result in the formation of a new and young team.
