Gopal Rai, on 14 June, had submitted his resignation. Satyendra Jain, who is PWD and Health minister, will now take charge of the transport ministry.
Last week, Rai had requested CM Arvind Kejriwal to relieve him from his responsibilities on health grounds, as he had recently undergone a major surgery.
