All Odisha Ministers Resign; Oath-Taking Of New Cabinet Tomorrow

Bhubaneswar: All ministers in the state resigned on Saturday and a reshuffle in Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik’s Cabinet is likely to take place on Sunday (June 5).

According to well-placed sources, an instruction was issued from Chief Minister’s office to the ministers to submit their resignations to the Chief Minister immediately. Accordingly, Speaker Surjya Narayan Patra put in his papers followed by a string of ministers, the sources added.

New Ministers are scheduled to be administered oath by Governor Ganeshi Lal Raj Bhawan on Sunday at 11.45 am. However, there has no confirmation on assignment of portfolios to the new Cabinet Ministers during the oath-taking ceremony, sources added.

Since the Chief Minister is scheduled to go on a foreign trip from June 20, it is perceived that he wants to revamp his ministry before his departure. He is scheduled to visit Rome and Dubai, sources informed.

Moreover, the Budget session of the Assembly is also scheduled to start from June 22.

The BJD government completed 3 years of its fifth term in office on May 29.
