According to sources, a meeting of the newly elected MPs of the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) led by the Bharatiya Janata Party has been called in Delhi on June 7. In this meeting, there will be a discussion on forming the NDA government. It is believed that Narendra Modi can take oath the next day of this meeting. Earlier yesterday, after the NDA got a clear majority, Prime Minister Narendra Modi became emotional remembering his late mother while paying obeisance to the people. He said that this is a historic moment. This is going to happen for the first time after 1962 when a government is returning to power for the third consecutive time.
Let us tell you that the results that came out after the Lok Sabha elections this time were very shocking, especially for the BJP. This time, BJP and its allies, who entered the elections with the slogan of 400 plus seats for the NDA, could not even cross the 300 mark. However, with 292 seats, the NDA crossed the majority mark of 272 seats and the way for the formation of the NDA government for the third time was cleared. On the other hand, the Congress’s Indi alliance has won 234 seats. Although the Indi alliance is far away from the majority figure, despite this it is engaged in lobbying to form the government.
