Mumbai: A total of 24 ministers took oath in the new cabinet of Gujarat on Thursday in the presence of Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel and former CM Vijay Rupani.
The swearing-in of the new cabinet was to take place on Wednesday but was delayed due to wrangling within the party over the posts, a senior BJP leader had earlier said on conditions of anonymity.
