Dehradun: Uttarakhand State CM Pushkar Singh Dhami is likely to retain important portfolios like Finance, Energy and Public Works. It is also being speculated that old ministers may be allotted new portfolios this time. Even on Friday, all eyes were on the division of portfolios to the ministers. But the portfolios could not be allocated.
Earlier, it was being said that after the swearing-in, all the ministers will be given portfolios. But CM Dhami went to Lucknow to attend the swearing-in ceremony of UP CM Yogi Adityanath. It is now being said that there may be brainstorming on the working of ministers on Saturday.
Close to some ministers are predicting the allocation of portfolios on Saturday itself. The eyes of senior ministers are in important departments like Energy, Housing, Urban Development, Excise, Industrial Development, PWD, Irrigation, Health, Home, Finance, Personnel, but this time their wish will hardly be fulfilled. According to the news received from the sources, in his second innings, the CM can keep many other important departments like Energy, PWD, Finance, Home, Personnel with him.
