In a significant political development, all 16 ministers in Gujarat, excluding Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel, have tendered their resignations. This move precedes a planned cabinet expansion, with the new cabinet scheduled for a swearing-in ceremony at Mahatma Mandir on Friday at 11:30 a.m.
Following the ceremony, the newly constituted team will hold its first meeting under the Chief Minister's leadership. The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has once again implemented its no-repeat formula, a strategy previously observed in 2021, as part of this major political shift. Discussions are reportedly underway regarding the appointment of a new Deputy Chief Minister.
This comprehensive resignation and subsequent reorganisation underscore a strategic overhaul within the states political landscape, aligning with the party's broader objectives for governance and political renewal in Gujarat.
