Union Tourism Minister Subodh Kant Sahai has resigned ahead of a Cabinet reshuffle by Prime Minister Manmohan Singh.
The reshuffle is aimed at refurbishing the image of Singh's government tainted by a series of corruption scandals involving several ministers ahead of parliamentary elections due in 2014.
Sahai's name had cropped up during the Coal Scam earlier & now the congress party wants him to take up organisational work. " It is a great honour to work for the party." said Mr. Sahai to news channels.
Chiranjeevi, the Telugu superstar who had merged his Praja Rajyam Party with the Congress last year is tipped to be the next Union Tourism Minister.
