VIJAYAWADA: Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy will chair the YSRC Legislature Party meeting on June 7. It is expected that the Chief Minister will announce the names of his Cabinet colleagues during the meeting, which will be held at Jagan’s Tadepalli residence.According to sources, the Chief Minister wants to announce the names of his Cabinet colleagues in front of his party MLAs and MLCs. 

Jagan is taking various factors  such as the representation from each district and caste into consideration for selecting his Cabinet colleagues. He will announce the names of ministers in the Legislative party meeting to get acceptance from his elected representatives. The Chief Minister is likely to induct one or two MLCs into the Cabinet, sources said adding those districts having more number of Assembly seats will get two-three ministers while smaller districts will have a single representation.

Apart from this, Jagan will also inform his MLAs and MLCs about the priorities of his government and ask the elected representatives to work towards proper implementation of the government schemes and programmes. Jagan will focus on taking the Navaratnalu schemes to the people and ask his elected representatives in that direction, sources said.

The Chief Minister will ask his MLAs and MLCs to be ready for the Assembly session, which will be convened once the Cabinet takes a shape. Though the first session of Assembly might not be a stormy one with the Opposition TDP too saying that it will wait for at least six months for the government to deliver, Jagan wanted his members to come prepared over issues concerning the people and raise them in the House so that the government discusses them and comes up with a solution.
