BJP chief Amit Shah to be inducted in new Cabinet. Nadda may take over as new BJP chief

The mastermind of the general elections of 2019 n BJP supremo Amit Shah who led his party to a landslide victory is likely to be inducted as a full fledged cabinet minister next to prime minister Narendra Modi.

Amit Shah has won from Gandhi Nagar with a whopping 5.87 lakh votes a record in itself, the constituency earlier represented by the BJP veteran and former deputy PM n HM, India Dr. Lal Krishn Advani.

If it happens under the BJP’s norm someone else in the saffron party would be handed of the party’s cudgels as its next chief and the name of the union minister of Health and Modi’s most trusted leuitenent J. P. Nadda of Himachal Pradesh may take over. The swearing in ceremony at Rashtrapati Bhawan on 30th May would be quite a historic event as prime minister designate Narendra Modi will be sworn in for the second time as the 17th prime minister of the largest democracy of the world after securing a historic 353 seats in the lok sabha with more than 300 seats of BJP, itself not at all requiring the support of the NDA allies.

The swearing in event would witness leaders of international repute from BIMSTECH, many of whom have already accorded their consent to participate viz President of Bangladesh Md. Abdul Hamid, President of Lanka Maithripala Srisena, President of Kirgyiz Republic Sooranbay Zeenbaykov, President of Myanmar, PM of Mauritious P. K. Juganauth, PM Nepal K P Sharma Oli, Bhutan’s PM Grisada Boonrach n special envoy of Thailand etc.

Good number of ministers from various states n NDA allies would be inducted in this swearing in. It is believed that by today evening the prime minister Narendra Modi or the party chief Amit Shah would inform the would be ministers about their inclusion in the union cabinet. The NDA allies whose aspirants are likely to be inducted in the union ministry are Shiv Sena, AIADMK, Akali Dal, Lok Jana Shakti Party, MNF, Apna Dal, JDU.n some former allies from Maharashtra.The states to be represented in the union cabinet are Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Maharashtra, Chattisgarh, Uttarakhand, Punjab, Himachal, Tamilnadu, Kerala, Assam etc. All the chief ministers of the Congress ruled states n states ruled by non BJP opposition parties have also been invited at the swearing in ceremony.

The West Bengal CM Mamata Bannerjee and Arvind Kejrival considered to be the arch rival of PM Modi are also attending the ceremony. The leaders of all the non BJP opposition parties like Rahul Gandhi, Sharad Pawar, Sitaram Yachury, Mayawati, Akhilesh Yadav, Mulayam Singh, Chandra Babu Naidu, BJP chief n Orrissa CM Biju Patnaik has also been invited. The newly elected CM of Andhra Pradesh Jaganmohan Reddy with 22 MPs n TRS chief n CM Telengana are also attending the swearing in ceremony. Keeping in view the immense majority of BJP lead NDA in the Lok Sabha the prime minister has a very tough task in hand to oblige large number of MPs in the new cabinet including his allies.

Sources reveal that it will be a two tier ministry initially n thereafter in case the possibility arises to oblige new entrants, it can be strethed to a three tier ministry. There is every possibility that initially a limited number of MPs with experience n the old hands would be included in the council of ministers n special impetus would be given to women as well.

This time out of total 78 women MPs BJP has near fifty of them. Every care n precision would be taken to adequatelt represent each n every state, castes n communities. One or two muslim ministers would also be inducted this time. Two names are popularly taking rounds one of Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi n another of Shahnawaz Hussain.

In the absence of union finance minister Arun Jaitley who is abroad for treatment some new but old experienced hand would be replacing him. It may be recalled that during the 2014 swearing in ceremony prime minister Narendra Modi has incited the leaders of SAARC nations including the then Pakistan PM Nawaz Sharief who had attended the ceremony in all earnestness but this time the new prime minister Imran Khan would be conspicuous by his absence.
