Meanwhile, Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia said, “Water management was not up to the mark. Kapil Mishra made a lot of effort. The Chief Minister decided to bring in Kailash Gahlot in his place.”
He added that two persons have been included in the Cabinet now– Kailash Gahlot and Rajendra Gautam for a post which was vacant. (ANI)
