New Cabinet Ministers

In Odisha, a new cabinet of 13 elected ministers took oath on June 5, at 11:45 am, a day after 20 Naveen Patnaik-led Government Cabinet ministers (20) resigned. The step was taken aiming to reshuffle, paving way for new MLAs like Jagannath Saraka, Niranjan Pujari, and RP Swain and three women MLAs Pramila Mallick, Usha Devi, and Tukuni Sahu. Governor Ganeshi Lal administered the oath to 13 newly elected ministers.
