Raipur . Chief Minister Vishnudev Sai has given a big statement regarding the cabinet expansion in Chhattisgarh. He clarified that the cabinet expansion in the state will be done under the Haryana formula. However, regarding the expansion, the CM said that ‘all that will happen, but we will have to wait.’ Today a meeting wa
Let us tell you that at this time two posts of ministers are vacant in the Sai cabinet. The organization is trying to implement the formula of 14 ministers in Chhattisgarh on the lines of Haryana. Important faces of the government and the organization are on a visit to Delhi, where a high-level meeting has been held. Although this meeting was focused on the organization elections, it is believed that in the presence of all the top leaders, the cabinet expansion has also been approved. Many leaders including BJP’s national co-organization minister Shiv Prakash, regional organization minister Ajay Jamwal, state in-charge Nitin Naveen, Chief Minister Vishnudev Sai, Deputy Chief Minister Arun Saw and Vijay Sharma, state president Kiran Dev were present in this meeting.
One year has passed since the Vishnudev Sai government came into power. The government had kept one ministerial post vacant earlier, but after Brijmohan Agarwal was elected as an MP, he resigned from the post of MLA. After his resignation, two posts in the cabinet became vacant. Brijmohan’s departments came under the Chief Minister. The Chief Minister was already burdened with the departments. There were talks of cabinet expansion right after the Lok Sabha elections, but the expansion was postponed until the Maharashtra and Jharkhand elections were over. The government has recently celebrated its one year. Urban body and panchayat elections are around the corner. Many big leaders are eyeing the cabinet expansion. They are hopeful that their turn may come in case the expansion takes place.
meeting with the national president
During his Delhi visit, Chief Minister Vishnudev Sai met BJP national president J P Nadda. It is believed that the cabinet expansion was discussed in this meeting. If sources in the organization are to be believed, in this meeting, opinions were sought about the possible faces to be included in the cabinet. Recently, during the Janadesh Parv of the state government, national president J P Nadda had come to Chhattisgarh. During that time also, he had consulted the top leaders of the state in a closed room in the BJP state office. At that time also, speculations were made that the cabinet expansion was discussed.
Who are the possible names?
The name of Durg city MLA Gajendra Yadav has been coming up in every discussion of cabinet expansion. Gajendra Yadav is the son of former RSS state chief Bisaram Yadav. It is said that Gajendra Yadav’s name was also discussed at the time of formation of the cabinet, but due to some reasons his name could not come in the final list. He also has an upper hand because he comes from the Yadav community. After the Sahu community, the Yadavs have the highest number in the OBC category in the state. In such a situation, the social equations also seem to be forming in favor of Gajendra Yadav. Meanwhile, the name of Bilaspur MLA Amar Agarwal has also emerged rapidly in the possible cabinet expansion. Amar Agarwal, who has been a minister for 14 years, is known for doing result-oriented work. Amar Agarwal, who believes in working away from the crowd, had made the excise policy in the previous Raman government. The contract system of liquor sale was abolished. This decision led to an unprecedented increase in excise revenue. Amar Agarwal has been the only face in the country, who was a member of the GST Council for the longest time. Rajesh Munat’s name is also in the headlines in the cabinet expansion. Munat, who has handled important departments like Housing and Environment, Transport, PWD, Urban Administration in the Raman government, is known for completing even the biggest tasks. He is considered close to the Assembly Speaker and former Chief Minister Dr. Raman Singh. Ajay Chandrakar is also one of the possible names for cabinet expansion. Ajay Chandrakar, who has a fiery image, is known for his parliamentary knowledge and deep political understanding. If a face from Bastar division is advocated in the cabinet, then in such a situation, the current state president Kiran Dev’s turn may come. Kiran Dev has demonstrated his leadership skills in the Lok Sabha elections. Vikram Usendi can also prove to be an important name. Apart from these possible names, Sunil Soni, who won the Raipur South by-election, can also get a wild card entry. Sunil Soni’s ticket was cut while he was an MP. The party had fielded Brijmohan Agarwal in the Lok Sabha elections in his place. After winning the Lok Sabha elections, Sunil Soni contested from Brijmohan Agrawal’s vacant Raipur South assembly seat and registered a big win. If for some reason former ministers are dropped from the cabinet expansion, then in such a situation Sunil Soni’s turn may come.
