SrinagarAs time for revamp has come, it is being believed that portfolios of some ministers will be changed. The ministries that are likely to witness a revamp are of Agriculture, Youth Services and Sports, IT etc.

Sources privy to this development have said that there are high chances of some ministers being given additional portfolios while some new faces also likely to be inducted in the council of ministers.

The speculations are also rife that coalition will try to pacify disgruntled voices within the cabinet as well.

Earlier, there were reports that few ministers in coalition were unhappy over their portfolios and were demanding the chances in their ministries.

They were later pacified by Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti and assurances were given to them that their issues will be resolved in the next cabinet reshuffle.

Sources also divulge that there will few faces who will be inducted into the council of ministers besides Tasaduq Mufti.
Pertinently, Governor NN Vohra last week sent his nod to the government over nominating Tasaduq as the member of the upper house of the state legislature.
