Discussions underway for Rajasthan cabinet expansion: Ajay Maken
AICC general secretary incharge for Rajasthan Ajay Maken on Tuesday said discussions are underway for the cabinet expansion and other political appointments in the state.
The demands for political appointments and cabinet rejig gained momentum after reports of resentment in the camp led by former deputy chief minister Sachin Pilot, who along with 18 MLAs had rebelled against the leadership of CM Ashok Gehlot last year.
When asked about the cabinet reshuffle and other political appointments in the state, Maken said, "The work is in progress. It means that discussions with all are being held."
"It is true that ministerial slots in the cabinet are empty and political appointments are to be made. District and block-level appointments in the party organisations would also take place. It is our endeavour to hold discussion with all," he said after a meeting with party office-bearers here.
Maken said discussions with the chief minister will also be held.
