Bhubaneswar: Putting to rest all speculations, the Odisha Cabinet is all set for a reshuffle on Monday.
If sources are to be believed, oath taking ceremony of new ministers is likely to take place at 9.30 AM on Monday at the Convention Centre of the Lok Seva Bhawan.
Governor Prof Ganeshi Lal will administer the oath and office of secrecy to the new ministers.
Prof Lal, who was scheduled to return from his native place in Haryana on Monday, has cut short his visit. He will be reaching Bhubaneswar on Sunday.
However, it is not yet clear who will be the new faces in Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik’s new team.
It is pertinent to mention here that Speaker Bikram Keshari Arukha, School & Mass Education Minister and Labour Minister Srikanta Sahu resigned from their posts last week.
Further, one ministerial berth is also lying vacant following the death of former Health Minister Naba Kisore Dash.
The Parliamentary Affairs Department has stepped up its preparation for the swearing-in ceremony. Invitations are being printed and the Convention Center at Lok Seva Bhavan is being decorated, sources said.
