Himachal Pradesh Chief Minister Virbhadra Singh today said there was no move at present to expand or reshuffle his Council of Ministers.

"There is no proposal as of now to expand or reshuffle the Council of Ministers," he told reporters here.

Singh was responding to a question on whether some party leaders from Kullu district would be inducted into his ministry.

On the party's emphatic win in Mandi Lok Sabha bypoll, he said the victory had silenced his detractors.

Virbhadra's detractors, during campaigning for the by-election, alleged he was losing grip over the masses.

The party would put a similar show in the upcoming Lok Sabha elections in the state, he said.
