Modi's Aam Aadmi Ministers
The latest round of Narendra Modi government’s Cabinet expansion-cum-reshuffle threw up interesting details. While the exercise ensured elaborate efforts to zero in on right candidates, personal integrity and accessibility to the common people too played a major role in the latest round of reshuffle. As someone rightfully put it — it was an expansion which saw aam aadmi ministers taking charge of important portfolios. Of course electoral compulsions, regional balance, and caste dynamics were kept in mind, but whether it’s Manoj Sinha, or Santosh Gangwar, or Hansraj Ahir or Arjun Ram Meghwal (the ministers that BW Businessworld’s Suman K. Jha talks to, in the following pages) all are known for their aam aadmi credentials. Unlike some others, they don’t sit in their ivory towers, but spend most of their time amidst the common people. While some of them like Sinha and Ahir have already proved their mettle, the PM would also like the Cabinet reshuffle to positively impact the coming elections.
