Taking a dig at portfolio distribution by Chief Minister Hemant Soren, State BJP Spokesperson Pratul Shahdeo today said that portfolio distribution is special privilege of the CM and the CM making the best use of this privilege majority of important departments kept with himself. “Normally, Water Resources and Urban Development departments are allotted to separate ministers, but the CM kept this department with himself alongwith Home, Energy, Personnel, Building Construction, Road Construction and several other departments. One third of the budget has gone in the departments of Alamgir Alam and Chief Minister and other ministers have been given the rattle. With portfolio distribution it is clear that the CM does not believe in the efficiency and vision of his Cabinet colleagues,” he said.
Pratul said that the Chief Minister used to say that the Cabinet would take all social classes along in the formation, but the people of 'Ho' and 'Munda' community did not get representation among the tribals, besides some prominent castes also did not get representation. All this shows that there was a difference between the words and actions of the Chief Minister, he added.
