 New Delhi: Vilasrao Deshmukh today took charge as the new Science and Technology Minister.
Taking over a week after the Cabinet reshuffle, Deshmukh said, "There was no question of my being unhappy. I was not here and was earlier busy with the Mumbai Cricket Association elections. I came back yesterday and took the charge today."
On his priorities, he said he had yet to understand the subject before formulating further plans. "I would take a presentation of the Ministry in the next two days and then evolve further plans. Let me try to understand the subject and get acquainted with it first. It is too early now."
