Gujarat Mega Reshuffle: All Ministers Out, Sanghvi is Dy CM, Cricketer's Wife Rivaba In.

This special report details the major cabinet reshuffle in Gujarat, where Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel has expanded his ministry, appointing Harsh Sanghvi as the new Deputy Chief Minister and inducting 19 new faces, including MLA Rivaba Jadeja. According to a party source, 'Resignations of all 16 ministers have been taken by the party. Except for Chief Minister Patel, all ministers have resigned.' The swearing-in ceremony was attended by Union Home Minister Amit Shah and BJP National President JP Nadda. This overhaul is seen as a strategic reset, balancing caste equations with significant representation for OBC, Patidar, and tribal communities ahead of the upcoming local body polls where a 27% OBC reservation will be implemented. The new cabinet, which includes many first-time MLAs, reflects the BJP's focus on rewarding performance and consolidating its power in the state before the 2027 Assembly elections.
