THE cabinet expansion of the BJP-led Maha Yuti government is likely to take place on Sunday evening at Raj Bhavan in Nagpur and portfolios will be allocated later even as the three alliance partners are still engaged in talks to finalize the formula for sharing ministerial berths.
According to senior BJP leaders, two formulas are under discussion. One is 15:8:7 in which 15 ministers of the BJP will take oath, eight of Deputy CM Eknath Shinde-led Shiv Sena and seven of Ajit Pawar-led NCP.
The second formula is 10:4:4 under which 10 ministers of BJP and four each of Shiv Sena and NCP will be sworn in.
