West Bengal cabinet expansion today, 35 ministers to take oath

West Bengal’s first BJP-helmed Cabinet will be sworn-in on Monday (June 1, 2026), with 35 MLAs set to take oath as Ministers, Chief Minister Suvendu Adhikari said.

West Bengal Governor R.N. Ravi will administer the oath at the Lok Bhavan in Kolkata.

After the induction of the 35 legislators into the Council of Ministers, the Cabinet strength will be 41, three short of the maximum count of Ministers that a government can have in the 294-member Assembly.
