Rupala has been given dairy, fisheries and animal husbandry departments that are particularly important in context of his home-state Gujarat. Darshana Jardosh has been inducted as Minister of State with important portfolios of Railways and Textile that are crucial for Surat from where Jardosh has been elected to Lok Sabha. Anavil by birth Jardosh’s induction is also seen as balance of power between CR Patil and Pravin Nayak groups of BJP in Surat and South Gujarat. Dr. Mahendrabhai Munjapara is doctors who has been serving the needy people through last many years. Munjapara is first term MP elected to Lok Sabha from Surendranagar in Saurashtra.
