Seniority along with regional and ethnic balance has been preferred in the responsibility sharing.
In Uttarakhand these days, the atmosphere in the BJP is completely enthusiastic. Reason, Chief Minister Trivendra Singh Rawat has indicated early cabinet expansion. There are three vacancies in the cabinet and the number of ministerial contenders is more than 40.
This is the reason that for the last few days, BJP MLAs are seen trying to make themselves part of the cabinet. Lobbying has started from Doon to Delhi. Here, on Tuesday, the Chief Minister suddenly awarded 10 party workers the responsibilities of the rank of Minister of State.
With this, now the number of responsibilities with the post of minister in the government has reached almost 40.
