Even the Main Minister produced it apparent that he was not joyful to enable go of a chunk of his loyalist team.

Uma Bharati, a former Main Minister of the point out, has an additional set of grievances. In her letter, which was also sent to the party’s organizational secretary Suhas Bhagat and Vinay Sahasrabudhe, the BJP parliamentarian in-charge of the state unit, she claimed the ministers’ list must be amended as it was did not give good representation in phrases of region or caste.
