New Delhi: The Modi cabinet has been expanded, the new team led by PM Narendra Modi has also started working. It was expected that Varun Gandhi might also find a place in this expansion of the Cabinet from Uttar Pradesh, but it did not happen. Now, former Union Minister Maneka Gandhi's reaction has come to the fore.

Maneka Gandhi says that we are around 600-650 MPs, so how many will the PM accommodate? Whoever has found a place is good. Maneka Gandhi had arrived in Sultanpur on a two-day visit where she said this. In the first term of PM Narendra Modi, Maneka Gandhi was in charge of the Ministry of Child Development, but she did not get a cabinet berth in the second term. With Uttar Pradesh going to assembly elections a few months later, speculations were rife that Varun Gandhi might get a cabinet berth this time. But that did not happen, though seven of the new ministers who have taken oath belong to UP.

Talking to the media after a meeting at Vikas Bhawan here, MP Maneka Gandhi said that it is a matter of great happiness that people voted above party lines in the election of Zilla panchayat president. Everyone has voted for a good person and we hope that our new Zilla Panchayat President will do a better job for the region. Maneka Gandhi said that last time too she received the award that she was the president of the best Zilla Parishad in UP.
