Cabinet reshuffle: PM Modi never fails to catch talking heads off guard, says Omar Abdullah
Former Jammu and Kashmir chief minister Omar Abdullah while reacting to the Union Cabinet reshuffle today said Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s ability to spring big surprises is “undiminished and unchallenged” even after over three years in power.
He was reacting to a tweet that said that no journalist had any clue about what the prime minister and BJP president Amit Shah were planning on the reshuffle that took place this morning.

The Council of Ministers may not be gender balanced but the High Table most certainly is. Well done @narendramodi ji.
