Chief Minister Eknath Shinde may expand his cabinet in Maharashtra before August 7. According to sources, the BJP and Shinde faction have agreed on the number of ministers and portfolios. The cabinet will consist of 35 members. In this way, the Shinde camp will get a 40% stake in the government.
In the cabinet, 21 ministers from the BJP quota can join the cabinet, while the Shinde faction can get 12 ministerial posts. 2 ministerial posts will go to other smaller allies. On June 30, Eknath Shinde took oath as the Chief Minister.
The matter was also made on the division of ministers

The BJP may keep big portfolios like home, finance, and revenue, while the urban development and road construction portfolios may be given to the Shinde faction of Shiv Sena.
