After the CM’s meeting with the Governor, there is discussion that after the cabinet in Ayodhya on November 9, cabinet expansion may take place on November 10. In this, apart from Omprakash Rajbhar, Dara Singh, one or two new faces may get a place to solve the caste equation in the Lok Sabha elections.
According to experts, Subha SP President Omprakash Rajbhar has put pressure on the BJP leadership in Delhi to join the cabinet. In July, Rajbhar had announced joining NDA. Since then he has spoken in Delhi Darbar several times to get a place in the cabinet. Dara Singh has also met BJP State President Bhupendra Chaudhary and Deputy Chief Minister Brajesh Pathak several times.
According to reliable sources, some leaders of RSS and BJP are not in favor of making Dara Singh a minister. The matter has been stuck for so many days due to lack of consensus on the name of Dara Singh. But Omprakash Rajbhar is under pressure to make Dara Singh a minister along with himself. Dara Singh can be included to woo Nonia Chauhan voters of Purvanchal.
According to information
CM can make changes in the departments of ministers based on their performance in one and a half year.
