By: Tupaki Desk | 7 Jun 2019 6:41 AM GMTEven as Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy is finetuning the composition of his cabinet, there are reports emanating that there would be another cabinet reshuffle in Telangana state. The Cabinet of the Telangana government was formed after almost 100 days of coming to power. Now, he is planning to rejig the cabinet.
Sources say that some of the Congress leaders, who have defected to the TRS, will also be included in the cabinet. Meanwhile, the Congress legislature party has merged into the TRS. This is being challenged in the court, but nevertheless KCR promised ministries to some of the Congress leaders. So, rejig is in the offing. Some ministers, in whose constituencies the TRS fared rather poorly in the recent Lok Sabha elections, could be shown the door.
The TRS government's cabinet has 11 members now. There is a provision for the induction of another five members. At least two of them could be from the Congress, according to the sources.
