After a long wait, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has given the green light for the expansion of his Cabinet. If sources are to be believed, this expansion of the Modi Cabinet may happen on Wednesday, 7 July. At least 15-20 new ministers can take oath.
Keeping in mind the Assembly elections in six states to be held next year and the upcoming 2024 Lok Sabha elections, Prime Minister Modi is going to expand his Cabinet. The focus will primarily be on a big state like Uttar Pradesh from where 80 Lok Sabha seats come. Assembly elections are to be held in Uttar Pradesh after eight months. To win UP, the BJP will have to get the social equation right, and thus it will need Brahmins, Jats and backward classes. Therefore, the Brahmin face of Rita Bahuguna Joshi from Uttar Pradesh, Kurmi OBC vote-bank of Apna Dal’s Anupriya Patel are necessary; then to remove the resentment of the Jats, in the wake of the farmers’ movement, BJP’s UP’s biggest Jat face Sanjeev Baliyan is likely to promoted as a Cabinet minister.
The posts of two dozen ministers are vacant in the Modi government. Eleven Union ministers are importance of vaccination, India decided to adopt a completely digital approach while planning its vaccination strategy. This helps people in proving that they have been vaccinated, expediting the normalcy in the post-pandemic globalised world. A safe, secure and trustworthy proof helps people to establish when, where and by whom they have been vaccinated.
In line with India’s philosophy of considering the whole world as one family, the Prime Minister said that Covid vaccination platform CoWin is being prepared to be made open source. Soon, it will be available to any and all countries.
