Uncertainty over participation of ADMK, JD (U) in Cabinet

News, Nation

A cloud of uncertainty hangs over the participation of the AIADMK and JD (U) in the Union Cabinet as Prime Minister Narendra Modi undertakes its reshuffle on Sunday.

Internal troubles in the Tamil Nadu party, which has been hit by a rebellion led by TTV Dhinakaran, can prove to be a stumbling block in its joining the government as it works to defuse the crisis. JD (U) sources said they were still not informed about their participation in the government. 

“Our MPs are in Delhi. There was never any issue in the party over participating in the government but there has been no communication to us even though the reshuffle is on Sunday,” a senior JD (U) leader said.
