Shivraj government cabinet expanded! Jyotiraditya Scindia got so many supporters

On Thursday, there was a much-awaited expansion of the cabinet of the BJP-led government led by Shivraj Bhasa Chouhan in which 28 ministers were sworn in. These new ministers also include 12 Jyotiraditya Bhasadhiya supporters, whose Kamal Nath government of the state fell after the resignation from Congress in March.

Governor Anandiben Patel administered the oath to 20 cabinet ministers and eight ministers of state at a ceremony organized for cabinet expansion at the Raj Bhavan here. Guidelines regarding Kovid-19 were followed at the swearing-in ceremony.

None of the MLAs who have been inducted in the cabinet are currently members of the Legislative Assembly. Probably for the first time in the country, such a large number of non-MLAs have been included in the cabinet of a state. Former Union Minister Jyotiraditya Bhasadhiya and Union Minister Narendra Bhasah Tomar reached Bhopal specifically this morning to attend the swearing-in ceremony.
