New Delhi: The Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Wednesday reallocated the portfolio of Deputy Chief Minister Manisha Sisodia, as per ANI.

Sisodia has been divested of the charge of the Revenue department and Registrar of cooperative societies. He will now look after the Tourism department which was earlier handled by Water Minister Rajender Gautam. 

In addition, he will continue to look after Education, Finance and other departments.

Transport Minister Kailash Gehlot will get the additional charge of the Revenue Department whereas Water Minister Rajender Pal has been appointed as the Registrar of Corporative Societies. 

Sisodia was earlier heading a number of ministries including Education, Finance, Planning, Land and Building, Revenue, Vigilance and all other departments not specifically allotted to any minister.

Sisodia's departments of Law, Information Technology and Administrative Reforms have also been given to Gahlot, who had also got the Transport portfolio from Health Minister Satyendar Jain.

Both Gahlot and Gautam were inducted into the Delhi Cabinet in May.
