NDTV
Sources said it remains to be seen if senior ministers like Nitin Patel, RC Faldu, Bhupendra Sinh Chudasma, Kaushik Patel and a few others are retained or dropped.
The oath ceremony of the new cabinet of Gujarat Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel -- slated to be held today -- was deferred for tomorrow at the last minute after elaborate arrangements were made at the Governor's house and large hoardings were put up. Sources indicated that differences over the new council of ministers are at the bottom of the sudden reschedule.

A terse tweet from the Chief Minister's Office read: "The swearing-in ceremony of the new cabinet of CM Shri @Bhupendrapbjp will take place tomorrow, September 16, 2021 at 1.30 pm at Raj Bhavan, Gandhinagar".
The entire Gujarat cabinet had resigned last week along with then Chief Minister Vijay Rupani.
