Electoral Politics Behind Cabinet Reshuffling!

 Recently a huge change happened in the union cabinet. The government has attempted to make the cabinet more youthful and also increased the representation of women in the cabinet. According to political analyst Sanjay Kumar, the motive behind this change in the cabinet is social engineering. This idea of social engineering aims at the benefits of electoral politics at both state and national levels. Several ministers are made from the 5states where state elections will take place next year. Also, the government focused on the representation of every caste so that any community doesn't feel alienated. The government has also looked upon the capabilities and experience of the new ministers, who show that the government is becoming more efficient. 

As the percentage of votes of Dalits and OBC toward BJP increased from 24% to 33% and 34% to 44% in the Lok Sabha elections of 2014 and 2019, respectively. So, to sustain and increase this support, many new ministers belong to these social groups.

What is a glacier? The collection of a very huge amount of ice for a very long time in a particular area where that ice does not melt due to the climatic conditions of that area. Example mountain 🏔️ tops, Alaska and Iceland. Due to the regular deposit of ice, its weight increases continuously which leads...
