Following the Bharatiya Janata Party’s (BJP) landslide victory in the 2019 Lok Sabha elections, party President Amit Shah is rumoured to receive a significant post in Prime Minister-designate Narendra Modi’s Cabinet.
Shah, credited as the party’s chief strategist, was fielded from the Gandhinagar Lok Sabha seat and won by a margin of over 3,00,000 votes.
Amid speculation whether Shah will be handed the Finance or the Home Ministry, the names of JP Nadda and Dharmendra Pradhan are doing the rounds to fill his shoes in the party.
According to a report by The Times of India, the names of these two BJP leaders were discussed as possible replacements, amid “unanimity that filling his boots would not be easy.”
