<keyword id="6354814" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="prime-minister-Narendra-Modi">Prime Minister Narendra Modi</keyword>’s Cabinet got 19 new faces in a reshuffle and five junior ministers were dropped. With this new mathematics, the strength of Modi’s council of ministers, including him, is now 83. 
 
With one eye on Uttar Pradesh polls in 2017, the induction of 19 new faces in the junior ranks was done on the basis of 3Es-Experience, Expertise and Energy also. 
 
The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is going aggressive and doing anything it can to win the power of seat in UP by playing caste card. 
 
In the re-shuffle, three ministers from UP were included in the council-Chandauli MP Mahendra Pandey (Brahmin), Shahjahanpur MP Krishna Raj (Dalit) and Apna Dal MP from Mirzapur Anupriya Patel (Kurmi-OBC). 
 
This time, Modi focussed on doers and performers, who can deliver on his vision of development and good governance. 
 
Apart from getting first time MPs on board, five junior ministers were dropped. 
 
Apparently, they did not deliver on Modi’s vision, and also because the party wants young faces in the council too. Some were even surprised to see their names in the axed list. 
 
Here are their names and portfolios they were handling

The oath taking ceremony of 19 newly inducted ministers in <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=prime+minister+narendra+modi&amp;sortorder=effectivedate">Prime Minister Narendra Modi</a> Cabinet was held at Rashtrapati Bhavan in presence of Indian President Pranab Mukherjee. 
 
The ministers were evaluated on 3Es- Experience, Expertise and Energy. Minister of State (Independent Charge) Prakash Javadekar was elevated to the Cabinet rank. 
 During the ceremony, <keyword id="6355187" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="20" keywordseo="Lok-Sabha">Lok Sabha</keyword> members Arjun Ram Meghwal, Anupriya Patel, Mahendra Nath Pandey Krishna Raj, Ajay Tamta, S.S. Ahluwalia, Jaswant Sinh Bhabhor, Subhash Ramrao Bhamre, Rajan Gohain, Ramesh Chandappa Jigajinagi, etc took oath as Minister of States. 
 From <keyword id="48510" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="20" keywordseo="Rajya-Sabha">Rajya Sabha</keyword>, Ramdas Athawale, Purushottam Rupala, Faggan Singh Kulaste, M.J. Akbar, Anil Madhav Dave and Vijay Goel took oath as Ministers of State. 
 
The selection of these ministers was also based on organisational skills and vision for good governance, who would bring value in the Cabinet. 
 
The portfolios of these ministers will be announced after a meeting of council of ministers later in the day.

Modi's Cabinet gets 19 new ministers, Prakash Javadekar elevated as Cabinet minister

<keyword id="6354814" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="prime-minister-Narendra-Modi">Prime Minister Narendra Modi</keyword>’s Cabinet is refreshed and renewed, with five ministers being dropped, one elevated and 19 new inducted. 
 The Cabinet has seen some major changes as <keyword id="6612" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Smriti-Irani">Smriti Irani</keyword> is no more the education minister and has been moved to textiles.

Modi Cabinet Reshuffle: Smriti Irani loses education; here’s a list of who got what

Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s working formulae is simple-delivering on promises, pro-activeness and good governance and Prakash Javadekar might have fulfilled many criteria to secure the Cabinet rank. 
 
In Modi’s new Cabinet, Javadekar is the lone junior minister who got promoted to the Cabinet rank. This is despite Javadekar, who was junior Environment Minister, was stripped off two main departments-Information and Broadcasting and Parliamentary Affairs, during the two-year reign of this government. 
 
What really helped Javadekar to get this promotion, was his pro-active role in the climate change talks in Paris. 
 
Under Javadekar: 
 
- India signed the historic Paris climate agreement along with more than 170 nations. India had maintained that the burden of fighting climate change cannot be put on the shoulders of the poor after decades of industrial development by the rich nations. 
 
- Initiatives such as increase in forest cover, better pollution monitoring and control and 2000 approvals unlocking Rs 10 lakh crore of investment were taken up. 
 
-A job potential of 10 lakh was created. Also, project approval period was reduced from 600 to 190 days and policy decisions and protecting India’s interest at COP 21 in Paris, etc worked in his favour. 
 
Some of his schemes for future may have also clicked with Modi such as incentivizing tree cover outside forest, promoting Ease of Doing Responsible Business, etc. 
 
Javadekar, a commerce graduate who is from Pune, rose from RSS ranks and was elected to Maharashtra Legislative Council twice between 1990 and 2002 before being first elected to Rajya Sabha in 2008. 
 
He represents Madhya Pradesh in Rajya Sabha. 
 
He was BJP spokesperson and party's incharge of Andhra Pradesh and also instrumental in striking a deal with Chandrababu Naidu's TDP to bring it into the NDA-fold.​

Here’s what helped Prakash Javadekar to get promoted to Cabinet from a junior minister

<a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=prime+minister+narendra+modi&amp;sortorder=effectivedate">Prime Minister Narendra Modi</a> is going the private sector way as he has asked all his ministers to present ‘self appraisals’ during a meeting on June 30. 
 
This will also decide who will get what ministry, as a <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=cabinet&amp;sortorder=effectivedate">Cabinet</a> re-jig is also on the cards. 
 
A top government source told TOI the ministers have been asked to make a presentation to Modi about their performance since the <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=BJP+government&amp;sortorder=effectivedate">BJP government</a> presented its second budget. 
 
The ‘self appraisal’ is also crucial as two states-Punjab and Uttar Pradesh-will go for polls next year. 
 
"There was talk that the June 30 meeting may be an appraisal exercise that can lead to a cabinet reshuffle," a source told TOI. 
 
Modi has been reviewing performances of his ministers at regular intervals and has even set a deadline for infrastructure-related projects. 
 
An official said a "bitter but healthy" competition is going on among the ministries and departments to get the best rating on the MyGov portal.

The Government is going the private sector way as Modi calls for self appraisals

<a href="http://www1.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=prime+minister+narendra+modi&amp;sortorder=effectivedate">Prime Minister Narendra Modi</a> re-shuffled his entire Cabinet and also kickstarted debates of all sorts on various issues. <a href="http://www1.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=modi+cabinet+reshuffle&amp;sortorder=effectivedate">Modi’s Cabinet rejig</a>, which is the biggest one in recent years, was done keeping an eye on assembly elections in Uttar Pradesh, which is slated next year in 2017. 
 
One of the major changes that the Cabinet saw was dropping <a href="http://www1.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=smriti+irani&amp;sortorder=effectivedate">Smriti Irani</a> as Education Minister and moving her to textiles. 
 
Even though the move was quite anticipated in the party rungs, the demotion came as a surprise to many. 
 
Irani’s exit as education minister was prompted owing to various reasons and now it is to see how she performs in textiles. One should not forget that she still is a Cabinet minister.

Talking about her performance as education minister, <a href="http://www1.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=twitter&amp;sortorder=effectivedate">Twitter</a> is already giving its two-year report card of Irani. Twiiterati are mincing no words and are trolling Irani, calling her demotion as ‘one of the major reforms’ in the education sector. 
 
Read on to know how Twitter responded to her new role:

ByeByeSmriti: From Text to Textiles, Twitter is trolling Smriti Irani after she is dropped as education minister

<a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=smriti+irani&amp;sortorder=effectivedate">Smriti </a><a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=smriti+irani&amp;sortorder=effectivedate">Irani</a>’s demotion has surprised many the same ways as it had when she was appointed as the Union Human Resources Development minister by <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=prime+minister+narendra+modi&amp;sortorder=effectivedate">Prime Minister Narendra Modi</a>. 
 
In the <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=modi+cabinet+reshuffle&amp;sortorder=effectivedate">Modi Cabinet rejig</a>, her demotion to Textiles Ministry is also stunning, but many predicted that she won’t be able to hold on to education ministry for long. 
 
Several issues eclipsed her stint at the <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=HRD+ministry&amp;sortorder=effectivedate">HRD ministry</a>, starting with her degree controversy.

Irani was mired in a controversy over her claims of possessing a Yale degree. Secondly, she scrapped the four-year format at the Delhi University and went back with the three-year format, which was against the wishes of the VC and UGC. 
 
The HRD Ministry was also at loggerheads with the Niti Ayog over accreditation and other issues. Experts say Irani took Niti Ayog as interference. 
 
Her handling of suicide case of Dalit scholar at Hyderabad Central University, Rohith Vemula, was also criticised by many. 
 
The recent Jawaharlal Nehru University row involving Kanhaiya Kumar also didn’t add to her sheen. Irani also played with fire when replaced German with Sanskrit as the third language in Kendriya Vidyalayas in 2014. 
 
Irani was also at the centre of the controversy when she was accused of intervening in the affairs of IIT-Delhi prompting the resignation of Director RK Shevgaonkar, two years before his term.
