Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Raman Singh on Monday met BJP President Rajnath Singh in New Delhi and is understood to have finalised his cabinet.
Both the leaders have finalised council of ministers. There would be about 12 ministers in Chhattisgarh government, official sources said.
The ministers are likely to be administered oath of office and secrecy in two phases on December 18, 19, they said. In the first phase, about eight to nine ministers are likely to be sworn in, the sources said adding there would be a mix of old and new faces in the cabinet.
