MUMBAI: CM Uddhav Thackeray may soon reshuffle his cabinet, particularly the Congress ministers following a plea by the party.
A senior Congress minister told TOI on Tuesday said that the AICC has proposed a reshuffle among Congress cabinet members. “It has been proposed to drop two cabinet members and induct two new ministers in their place,” he said.
The Congress minister said the AICC recently took a review of the performance of all the Congress cabinet members and felt it was time to drop non-performing ministers. “It was felt that some Congress cabinet members were not visible during the pandemic. The Congress has already prepared the list of ministers who will be dropped. All will depend on the availability of the CM and the governor for the purpose,” the minister said.
The minister said the AICC is keen on early elections for the speaker’s post which was earlier held by Congress’ Nana Patole, who has been appointed as state party president.
