On Wednesday West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee inducted nine ministers including former Union Minister Babul Supriyo into the state cabinet.

Nine ministers took oath in Kolkata - Babul Supriyo, Snehasis Chakraborty, Partha Bhowmick, Udayan Guha, Pradip Mazumder, Tajmul Hossain, Satyajit Barman. Birbaha Hansda and Biplab Roy Chowdhury were sworn in as Ministers with independent charges.

Former BJP MP Babul Supriyo, is presently a TMC MLA from Ballygunge assembly constituency in Kolkata.

Earlier on Monday, CM Mamata had said that four-five new faces would be inducted into the new cabinet, while a similar number of members of the present cabinet would be utilised for party work.

The reshuffle comes amid the party facing heat over the arrest of senior minister Partha Chatterjee by ED over the school jobs scam.
