After the election results, the NDA alliance had a meeting where Chandrababu was a key participant. There’s been talk about who will get which ministries in the central cabinet, and it seems like BJP is firm on holding onto important positions.
It’s predicted that JDU will get Rural Development and Panchayati Raj, while TDP might receive Civil Aviation and Steel, even though they asked for Finance, IT, and other roles like agriculture.
There are strong rumors that Pemmasani Chandra Sekhar will be appointed Health Minister. TDP MPs Ram Mohan Naidu and Vemula Prabhakar Reddy are also being considered for other ministries. From AP, Purandewari might get a position in BJP’s share.
BJP seems hesitant to give up crucial ministries to JDU or TDP. They’re keeping Defense, Finance, Home Ministry, and External Affairs, as well as Infrastructure, Welfare, Agriculture, Roads, Transport, and Railways. Shiva Sena might get Heavy Industries.
There’s speculation that BJP will keep the Speaker position but might give Deputy Speaker to TDP. It remains to be seen how the cabinet will be formed without upsetting the allies.
