State Cabinet formation likely to be a herculean task

New Indian Express  

VIJAYAWADA: With the TDP-led NDA registering a landslide victory, bagging close to 165 MLA seats out of the total 175 in the State Assembly, the formation of the Cabinet is likely to be a herculean task to TDP supremo N Chandrababu Naidu, who is all set to take oath as the Chief Minister soon. Though sources in the JSP indicated that their party chief Pawan Kalyan may not opt to be part of the Cabinet, the party may seek a considerable number of Cabinet berths as it won all the 21 seats it contested in the elections. As the NDA swept several combined districts and many senior leaders got elected from the TDP, it is common that the list of aspirants is likely to grow day-by-day. Several newly elected former ministers and senior leaders may also come into the race for a Cabinet berth.
