Ranchi: A first-time MP from Koderma constituency, Annapurna Devi (51), was inducted into the Union council of ministers following a major reshuffle on Wednesday. She is now the third MP from the state to go on central assignment in Team Modi. Khunti MP Arjun Munda is currently holding the portfolio of the Union tribal ministry, while Rajya Sabha MP Mukthar Abbas Naqvi is in charge of minority affairs. While Devi’s portfolio is yet to be announced, her rise in profile has come as a surprise for many in the political circles in Jharkhand, including in the state BJP unit. She is a former long-time close aide of RJD chief Lalu Prasad but joined BJP in the run up to the 2019 Lok Sabha polls deserting RJD, of which she was the state president too. BJP later fielded her from Koderma constituency against ex-CM Babulal Marandi, the chief of now-defunct JVM-P. She trumped Marandi by a margin of 4,55,600 votes.
