Prime Minister Narendra Modi was sworn in for a second term on May 30, 2019, along with his newly appointed cabinet. Notably, the Modi 3.0 Cabinet boasts a strong representation from South India, with 13 ministers originating from the region.

Of these ministers, five hail from the southern state of Karnataka. This marks a significant increase from the previous government, where Karnataka had only two representatives. The five ministers from Karnataka are:

Pralhad Joshi, Minister of Parliamentary Affairs and Coal
D.V. Sadananda Gowda, Minister of Chemicals and Fertilizers
Shripad Naik, Minister of State (Independent Charge) for AYUSH
Suresh Angadi, Minister of State for Railways
Anantkumar Hegde, Minister of State for Skill Development and Entrepreneurship

The inclusion of so many ministers from South India in the cabinet underscores the importance the Modi government places on the region. It also reflects the growing political clout of South India, which is home to some of the largest and most populous states in the country.

The appointment of these ministers is expected to further strengthen the BJP’s presence in South India and help the party consolidate its support in the region. It also sends a positive message to the people of South India, who may feel that their voices and concerns are being better represented at the national level.

The Modi 3.0 Cabinet is a diverse and experienced team that is well-equipped to address the challenges and opportunities facing India. The inclusion of so many ministers from South India is a welcome development that will undoubtedly benefit the region and the country as a whole.
