Chandigarh, Oct 29, 2014 (Agency)
Nearly three days after swearing-in, Haryana Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar Tuesday night allotted portfolios to the newly-inducted ministers.
Khattar has kept the departments of home, power, town and country planning and information and public relations with himself. All other departments not assigned to any minister will also be with him.
Two ministers, Ram Bilas Sharma and Captain Abhimanyu, who were contenders for the post of the first BJP chief minister in Haryana, seemed to have got the lion’s share in allocation of portfolios. They have been allotted nine and 13 departments respectively.
Sharma has got education, transport, food and supplies, tourism, parliamentary affairs, hospitality, technical education and others.
Captain Abhimanyu has been given finance, revenue, excise and taxation, forests, environment, industries, planning, law and others.
O.P. Dhankar has been made agriculture and irrigation minister, while Anil Vij is the health and sports minister. Narveer Singh is the minister for public works department (PWD) and public health engineering.
