New Delhi [India], June 10 (ANI): Soon after taking charge as the Minister of Ports, Shipping and Waterways under the Modi 3.0 cabinet, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Sarbananda Sonowal asserted that he would perform his duties with dedication.
"We will do the work of taking this ministry forward under the leadership of PM Modi. We will perform our duties with dedication," Sonowal told ANI.
The portfolios were announced on Monday in a press communique by the President's Secretariat a day after the swearing-in of the council of ministers at the Rashtrapati Bhavan. The portfolios were allocated on the advice of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

Sarbananda Sonowal bagged Assam's Dibrugarh seat for the second time, defeating Assam Jatiya Parishad (AJP)'s Lurinjyoti Gogoi by a handsome margin of 2,79,321 votes. He was the minister of state (independent charge) of youth affairs and sports during the first term of Narendra Modi's government, from 2014 to 2016.
The distribution of portfolios was announced a day after the swearing-in of the NDA government. The alliance scored a hat-trick victory in Lok Sabha polls. (ANI)
