Two pro-Scindia MLAs may take oath as ministers.
About the expansion of the cabinet, Chauhan said that there is no hurry. However, it is believed that two pro-Scindia MLAs resigned as Ministers during the by-election.
The Chief Minister's explicit refusal to expand the cabinet indicates somewhere that at present, only two pro-Scindia ministers can be sworn in as Ministers which could include Tulsi Silvat, MLA from Sanwer and Govind Singh Rajput, MLA from Surkhi.
