TIL Desk/National/New Delhi/ Bharatiya Janata Party national vice-president Radha Mohan Singh on Sunday dismissed the possibility of an imminent Cabinet reshuffle in Uttar Pradesh and shot down the speculation over a “rift” between Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath and Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
Singh, the party’s in-charge in UP, also junked talks over the possibilities of a change in party’s or the government leadership in the state, asserting that both are working fine. Singh made the rebuttals while talking after his meeting with Governor Anandiben Patel, which he described as a “personal” one.
Asked about a TV news channel report claiming an imminent Cabinet expansion in UP, Singh told, “No expansion is going to take place now. Everyone is focussed on the election of zila panchayat chairpersons.”
“When it takes place, it will be known,” he added. “The reports appearing in newspapers and news channels do not make any sense,” he quipped. Singh also junked the reports on the alleged rift between Modi and Yogi, describing the CM as the most “competent implement” to fulfil PM’s dream.
