Major shuffle in Modi's team

Prime Minister Narendra Modi and BJP are not able to digest the huge defeat in the Bihar elections. BJP Parliamentary board met this morning and sources indicate that Modi is keen on making major changes in his cabinet. He is likely to show the door for non-performing ministers.

There are also proposals to bring Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister, Shivraj Singh Chouhan and Chhattisgarh CM, Dr.Raman Singh to the center. Both of them are popular CMs and may be given key portfolios in the center.

Previously BJP did the same to the then Goa CM Manohar Parrikar and made him the defense minister. However this decision may strengthen the central government but weaken the party in the states.
