The Cabinet rejig is the next most awaited political event in New Delhi. But surely, it’s not necessarily the most accurate indicator of the power shift in the current political context.Let’s face it. Just being a Cabinet mantri isn’t a free ride to political authority in today’s BJP . And that changes a few things when one talks of any kind of rejig in 2017.The rise of a new BJP is really the big political change. But the challenge before the BJP leadership will be to appear credible in making these choices, to ensure it still remains the best magnet for political talent.
