National Democratic Alliance to form the government soon

Mr. Narendra Modi Addresses Newly Elected MPs of the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance 

Prime Minister Narendra Modi is set to take the oath of office for the third consecutive term on June 9 at 6 PM. This announcement came from BJP leader Prahlad Joshi during a meeting of the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) parliamentary party.

The meeting began around 11:45 AM on Friday in the Samvidhan Sadan (Old Parliament) and was attended by newly elected MPs of the BJP-led NDA. The primary agenda was to elect Narendra Modi as the leader of the alliance, officially paving the way for his next term as Prime Minister. Senior alliance leaders, including various chief ministers, were also present. BJP President J P Nadda is expected to propose a resolution supporting Modi's leadership, which the attendees are likely to endorse.

Following Modi's election as the leader of NDA MPs, key figures such as TDP's N Chandrababu Naidu, JD(U)'s Nitish Kumar, and Shiv Sena's Eknath Shinde will accompany the Prime Minister to meet President Droupadi Murmu. They will present her with a list of parliamentarians who support Modi, according to sources within the alliance.

The swearing-in ceremony is anticipated to take place on Sunday. The NDA currently holds 293 seats in the 543-member Lok Sabha, comfortably surpassing the majority threshold of 272.

In the lead-up to forming the new government, senior BJP leaders, including Amit Shah, Rajnath Singh, and J P Nadda, have been in discussions with alliance partners to finalize their roles and representation in the new administration. The success and stability of the government will heavily rely on these negotiations and the cooperation of all alliance members.
