The 11 other ministers who have to deliver either under the PMO’s tutelage or by themselves with strong bureaucratic inputs are: Rajnath Singh (home, but with behind-the-scenes push from NSA Ajit Doval), Sushma Swaraj (external affairs, but with PM doing most of the diplomacy), Smriti Irani (HRD, with direct PMO inputs), Rajiv Pratap Rudy (handling PM’s key area of skill development), Prakash Javdekar (environment), Chaudhary Birendra Singh (rural development), Radha Mohan Singh (agriculture), Dharmendra Pradhan (petroleum, with Jaitley’s finance inputs), Jitendra Singh (PMO’s handyman, and pointman for north-east), Nirmala Sitharaman (commerce and industry, with PM’s inputs), and Mahesh Sharma (tourism).
Together, these 18 ministers will have to achieve all of Modi’s politico-economic goals.
