Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu is mulling over a possible Cabinet shuffle once he returns from his Japan Tour. Naidu is particularly not happy with the performance of some of his ministers and even openly announced his dissatisfaction on couple of occasions. But there seem to be no change and the CM is now planning to bite the bullet.
There are indications that the CM may change the home, agriculture, mines, and social welfare portfolios. From here on, Naidu will observe the performance of the ministers for one year and if they do not improve their performance, he may reshuffle the Cabinet again.
Deputy CM Chinna Rajappa,Social welfare minister Ravela Kishore Babu and agriculture minister Prattipati Pulla Rao were not in the good books of the CM. However it is said that Naidu may not remove them from cabinet but may change their portfolios considering their loyalities to the party and other reasons. Chandrababu has also received complaints about some ministers over transfer of state staff.
