Mumbai: A Raj Bhavan official said on Tuesday that the reshuffle of Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath’s cabinet will take place on August 21. This will be the first reshuffle of the yogi government since the took over in Uttar Pradesh on March 2017.
After some state ministers were elected to Lok Sabha, slots were left empty in the yogi cabinet. The reshuffle is likely to fill those slots and bring some new faces in the cabinet.
Three UP ministers were elected to Parliament in the recent Lok Sabha polls, while one was sacked.
“The oath-taking ceremony will be held on Monday around 11 am at UP Raj Bhavan,” a Raj Bhavan official told PTI.
The Cabinet consists of 47 members including Yogi Adityanath.
On Saturday, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath met Governor Anandiben Patel after he apparently discussed the issue during his meeting with BJP chief Amit Shah in New Delhi.
