NEW DELHI: BJP president Amit Shah is all set to get another term as party president as a number of big decisions in the government and the party appears to be awaiting his re-election - among them the expected cabinet reshuffle, sources told NDTV.
The party has already taken a decision and with no challenger in sight Mr Shah's return is expected to be consensual.The current term of Mr Shah who had taken over in July 2014 ends in the third week of January.
The schedule for the president's election is expected to be announced by January 15.
Sources say Prime Minister Narendra Modi is expected to reshuffle his council of ministers once Amit Shah's team is ready. PM is said to be looking for fresh faces to be inducted into the council.
While the buzz is that ahead of the budget and the parliament session the PM may retain the top four ministers in his cabinet, some leaders may have to make way for newcomers.
"There is a list of ministers about whom there is a feedback that they have not performed or have not been able to deliver political responsibilities. That's why some ministers may be axed while some may see portfolios altered," said a senior party leader.
There are reports that some performing ministers may get charge of related ministries bringing back partially the super ministry concept to improve coordination and delivery.
"More than 30 ministers campaigned in Bihar, 12 of them were camping there. The cabinet rejig may reflect accountability fixing for Bihar loss too as the state's representation in the council reduced," said another leader.
