With Prime Minister Narendra Modi's swearing in scheduled today, some ministers too are likely to take oath. While most of the sitting BJP ministers from Maharashtra are expected to retain their berths in the Modi Cabinet, ally Shiv Sena could not decide on its representation till Wednesday night due to a stiff competition between its MPs.

Sources in the BJP said Nitin Gadkari, Suresh Prabhu, Piyush Goyal and Prakash Javdekar would definitely be in the new team, while state BJP president Raosaheb Danve, who had quit as a junior minister in the erstwhile Cabinet after being made in-charge of the party unit in Maharashtra, is expected to be promoted as a Cabinet minister or as a minister of state with independent charge. It would be interesting to see which ministries these members are allotted.
