[h=1]'Be prepared to accept the roles I assign'[/h]Shekhar Iyer
Prime Minister-designate Narendra Modi has been loud and clear in conveying to BJP ministerial aspirants that they should be prepared to accept the role he has for them once he finishes choosing his team.
The leaders are likely to be handed a “take it or leave it” option as he would not want to engage in any nerve-wracking negotiation or pressure tactics witnessed by the BJP earlier.
Keeping his cards close to his chest, Modi has indicated that he would not be able to perform or deliver unless the “best hands” identified by him were given specified tasks.
Barring senior leaders like BJP chief Rajnath Singh and Arun Jaitley, none from the top brass who interacted with him have managed to get an idea of the role they could get once the government assumed office, party sources said.
While Singh is near-certain that Modi will make him home minister, Jaitley has got “good indications” that he will be asked to be finance minister. Other BJP leaders remain in the dark, party officials said.
Sushma Swaraj, who met Modi a day ago, has been offered health or human resource development with an elevation as “special invitee” to the elite club of Cabinet Committee of Security (CCS), which comprises ministers of home, finance, defence and external affairs.
