Peddireddy, Botsa, Kodali back in cabinet?

Even as YSR Congress party president and Andhra Pradesh chief minister Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy is doing hectic exercise on the formation of his new cabinet, speculations are going on the list of probable ministers to be inducted.

On Saturday afternoon, social media groups have come out with exclusive lists of the new cabinet ministers, as the officials of the protocol department have started making arrangements for the swearing in ceremony at 11.31 am on Monday and preparing the invitation cards.

According to the official sources, the final list of the ministers to be inducted will be out only on Sunday evening and each minister would be intimated personally.

The latest reports doing rounds in the social media, quoting the party sources, indicated that Jagan might continue as many as 10 ministers of the previous cabinet – including Peddireddy Ramachandra Reddy, Botsa Satyanarayana, Kodali Nani, Adimulapu Suresh, Ch Srinivasa Venugopala Krishna, S Appala Raju, Sankara Narayana, Taneti Vanitha, Amzad Basha and G Jayaram.

This does mean there would be only 14 new ministers in the cabinet, whose names are being discussed by Jagan with his close confidants.

There is also a talk that Cherukuvada Sriranganath Raju might also be retained, but the name of Prasada Raju from the same West Godavari district has come into the picture.

Some of the other names that are doing rounds are: Dharmana Prasada Rao, Rajanna Dora, G Amarnath, Muthyala Naidu, Dadisetty Raja, Dorababu, Grandhi Srinivas, Kakani Goverdhan Reddy and Shilpa Chakrapani Reddy.

The number of ministers from OBCs, SCs and STs, besides women, is likely to go up, sources said.
