 New Delhi: Cabinet reshuffled is likely to take place on Tuesday.
The Defence, Finance, Home and Foreign ministers are likely to stay on the course, but the Corporate Affairs Miniter Murli Deora has already asked to be relieved of his duties.
With elections round the corner in Uttar Pradesh, Salman Khursheed, the Congress' minority face, could get a portfolio up-gradation. MoS Beni Verma would also be hoping to be made a Cabinet minister.
"It's the Prime Minister's prerogative to decide what work he wants a minister to do," said Congress Spokesperson Shakeel Ahmed.
As for the Opposition, its demands are clear - they want the Prime Minister to drop two ministers - P Chidambaram and Kapil Sibal - for their handling of the 2G case.
