The Minister for the department, Anupama Jaiswal, had earned the Chief Minister's ire last year when school children were not provided sweaters and shoes during the winter months.This year too, school children have not been provided shoes on time.Adityanath had earlier stopped the transfers done in the Health Department that is headed by Siddhartha Nath Singh.

All these officers were removed from district posting and attached to the head office in Lucknow.The 'transfer industry', as it is known, is the biggest corruption machine in the state. Money exchanges hands for effecting transfers and then stopping them. Government employees prefer postings where corruption comes easy and for this, they pay handsome amounts to their bosses.Ever since he came to power, Yogi Adityanath has been firmly against corruption but some of his own ministerial colleagues have quietly flouted his instructions.BJP sources said that the Chief Minister has told the party high command about the misdeeds of some of the ministers and wanted them dropped in the cabinet reshuffle.( With inputs from IANS )
