Here’s a list of prominent faces have been dropped from Narendra Modi 2.0 dispensation.
Juel Oram: The tribal leader from Odisha, who handled the Tribal Affairs Ministry portfolio in the previous Narendra Modi regime, has been dropped from the new government.
Sushma Swaraj: Reports suggests she had requested the PM not to induct her into the new cabinet because of her health.
Radha Mohan Singh: He was seen as one of the non-performing ministers. The farm crisis worsened in the country during his tenure as the Agriculture Minister.
Maneka Gandhi: She had courted controversy during the election campaign when she said Muslims should not approach her for work if they do not vote for her in the elections. Report suggests she might be the pro-term Speaker.
J P Nadda: The outgoing Health Minister is being seen as one of the senior BJP leaders to replace Amit Shah as BJP president. Shah was sworn in as a cabinet minister in the new government.
Rajyavardhan Singh Rathore: The reason for dropping him from the Cabinet remains unclear. He was instrumental in pushing the PM’s ambitious ‘khelo India’ initiative.
Suresh Prabhu: He was considered a performing minister in the previous Modi government. Evidently, his omission has come as a big surprise in the political circles.
Jayant Sinha: Jayant was handling the Civil Ministry portfolio under Suresh Prabhu. His omission from the new government has also come as a surprise.
