New Delhi, Sept 12: Odisha Chief Minister Mohan Majhi on Friday called on BJP National President and Union Health Minister JP Nadda in the national capital, triggering fresh speculation about Cabinet reshuffle and expansion in the state government.

The meeting, held at BJP headquarters, comes at a time when the Odisha government is reportedly finalizing appointments for key positions in state-run corporations and planning a broader ministry overhaul.

Sources close to the party said that the discussions with national leadership are pivotal in shaping the next phase of governance in Odisha.

Focus on Healthcare and Governance

During the meeting, CM Majhi reportedly presented a detailed overview of the state’s people-centric initiatives, with a special emphasis on healthcare reforms. He outlined plans to strengthen Odisha’s health infrastructure, expand medical education, and improve access to services in remote areas.

Odisha Health Minister Mukesh Mahaling, who accompanied the Chief Minister, also participated in the discussions, reinforcing the state’s commitment to universal health coverage and collaboration with the Centre.

Strategic Timing

The timing of the meeting is seen as politically significant, especially as the BJP-led government in Odisha is likely to make its first Cabinet reshuffle. The CM is expected to announce new appointments and policy directions in the coming weeks, with input from the party’s top brass.

Party insiders believe the reshuffle will reflect a balance of experience and fresh leadership, aimed at accelerating development and delivering on electoral promises.
