New Delhi: The Telecom portfolio is unlikely to be handed over to anyone before the end of the current session of Parliament on December 13.
This indication was given on Monday by highly placed government sources who said no reshuffle would take place till Parliament is in session.
"This will not happen till the session ends," a source said when asked who would be given Telecom portfolio.
After the resignation is formally accepted, the portfolio will remain with Prime Minister Manmohan Singh.
Raja was forced to quit on Sunday night in the face of strong demands by the opposition for alleged scam in 2G spectrum allocation.
