New Delhi: PM Modi may not have been able to introduce the newly inducted members of his council of ministers in parliament due to uproar created by the opposition but BJP is planning to introduce them to the people they represent, according to reports.
The party, under the leadership of its chief JP Nadda, is reportedly planning to have 'Jan Ashirwad Yatra' for the newly-inducted union ministers. A senior party leader said that balance in terms of caste and other factors has been kept across states. "Take Maharashtra or for that matter Karnataka. Caste, the regional balance has been struck. Similar is the case with Uttar Pradesh," he said. "Of the four new ministers in Maharashtra, only Narayan Rane belongs to the upper caste. Similarly, the ministry has maximum women ministers for any government at the Centre," he added.
The party has given the task concerning the yatra to some national office bearers including general secretary Tarun Chugh, secretaries Sunil Deodhar and Arvind Menon and Vinod Sonkar and national vice president M Chuba Ao. The Prime Minister had carried out a reshuffle and expansion of his ministry earlier this month.
