Smriti Irani to Anurag Thakur, Major BJP Leaders Likely to be Excluded from Modi 3.0 Cabinet! Reports

Surprisingly, according to some media reports, Prime Minister Narendra Modi's third-term cabinet is unlikely to include prominent BJP officials and former Union Ministers like Smriti Irani, Anurag Thakur and Narayan Rane.

Smriti Irani's Electoral Setback

In the Lok Sabha election, Smriti Irani—who had previously held the position of Minister for Women and Child Development—was defeated in the Amethi constituency of Uttar Pradesh. By a margin of more than 1.6 lakh votes, she was defeated by Kishori Lal Sharma, the Congress candidate. This defeat follows her stunning five-year-old triumph over Rahul Gandhi in Amethi, which attracted a lot of attention.

Anurag Thakur's Exclusion

It is also not planned for Anurag Thakur, the Hamirpur-based BJP politician who previously served as the government's information and broadcasting and sports ministers, to rejoin the Union Cabinet. Reports claim that he was left out of the new lineup despite his election triumph.

Continued Leadership and New Faces in Modi 3.0

While some prominent leaders are stepping down, several key figures are expected to continue hold their positions in the new cabinet. These include:

  • Amit Shah
  • Rajnath Singh
  • Nirmala Sitharaman
  • S Jaishankar
  • Nitin Gadkari
  • Mansukh Mandaviya
  • Piyush Goyal
  • Ashwini Vaishnaw
  • Dharmendra Pradhan
  • Bhupendra Yadav
  • Prahlad Joshi
  • Kiren Rijiju
  • CR Paatil
  • L Murugan
  • Hardeep Puri
  • ML Khattar
  • Shivraj Chouhan
  • Gajendra Shekhawat
  • Suresh Gopi
  • Jitin Prasada

Allies in the NDA

The new cabinet is expected to see the inclusion of leaders from various parties within the National Democratic Alliance (NDA), such as:

  • HD Kumaraswamy
  • Jayant Chaudhary
  • Pratap Jadhav
  • Ram Mohan Naidu
  • Sudesh Mahato
  • Lallan Singh

Rajeev Chandrasekhar's Expected Absence
