Raje hints reshuffle, denies dissidence

New Delhi, Feb 5 (UNI) Rajasthan Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje today indicated that she may reshuffle her Council of Ministers any time but remained evasive on whether she was facing any dissidence by a section of partymen.

''I have been thinking of a reshuffle for the past some time. It can come anytime. It can be tomorrow, within a week, within a month or within a year,'' she told mediapersons.

Mrs Raje who was here in connection with the finalisation of the Eleventh Five Year Plan for Rajasthan, was confronted with a host of questions by mediamen whether she was facing any problem within her council of ministers. They also brought to her notice about the meeting of four senior Rajasthan Ministers having met party president Rajnath Singh yesterday.

Dismissing reports as just rumours, she said these were all media making. She was not aware of it if there were any dissidents. There was no threat to her government from any quarter, she added.

When further pressed if she was planning any reshuffle of her council of ministers, she replied in the affirmative but refused to give any time frame.
