Is there some more important responsibilities coming his way? Union minister of state for food processing and horticulture and Madhya Pradesh strongman Prahlad Singh Patel resigned from his job and also as a parliamentarian. ``I resigned on the directives of the party. I am only a legislator now and a loyal soldier of the BJP,'' he said.
ANM News spoke to several senior leaders of the BJP in Madhya Pradesh and in Delhi and figured out that Prahlad Singh Patel and Narendra Singh Tomar, two of the union ministers who contested the elections and won handsomely are in race to pick up imporatant portfolios. There are chances of Patel becoming the deputy chief minister. Patel known as a no nonsense politician with considerable experience in running several ministries, was a favourite of the party top brass.
