The Election is over, and now all the eyes are on the New Cabinet, and as it's confirmed the leader of the alliance will continue to be Narendra Modi, and now we have to see what really happened under Modi 3.0
For the third time, PM Modi prepares to take oath fo as the head of a coalition government, the Bharatiya Janata Party ( BJP) - a key player in the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) - appears all set to keep four key Raisina ministries including Home, Defence, Finance and External Affairs portfolios, as reported by Republic media.
Earlier during the day on Tuesday, Modi chaired a meeting of the NDA members who unanimously elected him as the bloc's leader.
NDA MPs will meet on June 7 to formally elect Modi as their leader and the leaders of coalition will then approach the President to submit their letters of support, news agency PTI quoted HAM (Secular) leader and former Bihar CM Jitan Ram Manjhi as saying after the meeting.
The new government is likely to be sworn in over the weekend. However, the amount of time the BJP and its allies take to reach an agreement on matters like the share of ministries and other terms of negotiations could also be a factor in deciding the timing of the swearing-in.
TDP leader N Chandrababu Naidu, Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde, LJP(R) leader Chirag Paswan, JD(S) leader H D Kumarawamy, Jana Sena's Pawan Kalyan, AGP's Atul Bora and NCP's Praful Patel were among the 21 leaders from 16 parties who attended the meeting besides Modi and BJP's Amit Shah, Rajnath Singh and JP Nadda.
Janata Dal (United) leader Sanjay Jha, who was present in the meeting, told PTI that the formalities related to the formation of the government at the Centre under Modi are expected to be over soon.
A resolution passed at the meeting said the NDA government will continue working to lift people's living standards for the country's all-round development while conserving its heritage.
