Now the number of ministers including the Prime Minister has increased to 78 in the Modi government, whereas earlier this number was 42. Of these, 15 are cabinet ministers, 6 are ministers of state with independent charge and the remaining 22 are ministers of state. SP chief Akhilesh Yadav has also raised questions regarding this reshuffle. Akhilesh has tweeted that by changing such a large number of ministers or ministries, the BJP government itself has admitted that it has failed in every field. The need is to replace the entire train, not just the coaches. The BJP has lost its moral right to run the government. There is a wave of change in the country and the state.
Let us inform that after the expansion of the cabinet, Prime Minister Modi also divided the departments. Mansukh Mandaviya has got the Health Ministry while Jyotiraditya Scindia has got the Civil Aviation Ministry.
