As the Iranian president faces a deadline to introduce his new ministers, reports indicate that Mahmoud Ahmadinejad will submit the new Cabinet line-up to Parliament on Wednesday.
President Ahmadinejad will present the list of ministers to Majlis to obtain a vote of confidence, Press TV reported.

According to Iran's Constitution, a newly-installed president has two weeks to set up a government and submit the new Cabinet line-up to Majlis for approval. Ahmadinejad was sworn on August 5.

On Sunday, he disclosed the names of six members of the new line-up in a televised address before Majlis was let in on the list.
