Chennai, May 1 (SocialNews.XYZ) Tamil Nadu Finance Minister P.T.R. Thiaga Rajan met Chief Minister M.K. Stalin at the latter's Alwarpet residence here on Monday amid speculations of an imminent cabinet reshuffle.
There are reports that Stalin is gearing up for a reshuffle in the cabinet before the second anniversary celebrations of the government.
