New Delhi, July 9 (SocialNews.XYZ) A majority of people have given a thumbs up to the Union Cabinet reshuffle which they feel will improve the situation of the country.

However, former Health Minister being dropped from the Cabinet has not gone down well with the people. More than half or 54 per cent said Harsh Vardhan is alone not responsible for the hardships faced by the people during Covid-19 and is being made a scapegoat, while 29 per cent disagreed with this notion.
