Senior Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader and newly inducted minister of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Cabinet, Amit Shah, has been allocated the Ministry of Home Affairs, a press communique from the Rashtrapati Bhawan said.

The incumbent BJP chief, often called 'Chanakya' due to his political understanding and histrionics, took oath as a Cabinet minister at 7 pm on Thursday.

Amit Shah, in his decade-long political career, had never held a Cabinet portfolio and always chose to work from the background and strengthen the saffron party.
