Will it benefit nation by having better governance? Of course, the answer will be in the negative.
This reshuffle has kept the window open for one more after the Uttar Pradesh election.
The Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam-held portfolio of textiles has been kept with the Congress and it will return it if and when M Karunanidhi decides to nominate his choice.
The top four ministries namely finance, home, defence and external affairs have not seen any changes. It means that Pranab Mukherjee and P Chidambaram have proven equal in their covert politics against each other.
If Mukherjee's confidante and senior officer Omita Paul came under attack in the media and elsewhere, Chidambaram was embarrassed by the story that suggested that the wing of the government was trying to snoop on the finance minister's office. The power tussle between the wily Chidambaram and the richly experienced Mukherjee has not produced any change in the Cabinet.
