Kolkata: Babul Supriyo, former Union minister of the BJP, is among the most prominent faces in Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee’s cabinet expansion. The party’s biggest expansion since it came to power in 2011, includes five new faces in all.
Supriuo joined the state’s ruling Trinamool Congress last year, shortly after the party won a third consecutive term in power.
Along with Babul Supriyo, Snehashish Chakraborty, Partha Bhowmik, Udayan Guha and Pradip Majumder will be allotted seats in the cabinet. Four junior ministers will be Birbaha Hansda, Biplab Roy Chowdhury, Tajmul Hossain and Satyajit Burman, according to a report on NDTV.
The five new ministers took oath on Wednesday afternoon.
