Prime Minister Narendra Modi is holding a meeting with top BJP leaders, including Union Minister Amit Shah, Rajnath Singh and party president JP Nadda, amid the ongoing exercise for government formation in Uttar Pradesh, Uttarakhand and Goa. BJP’s organization general secretary BL Santosh also attended this meeting being held at the Prime Minister’s residence.
In the recently concluded assembly elections, the BJP returned to power in Uttar Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Goa and Manipur, while the Aam Aadmi Party formed the government with a thumping majority in Punjab. In Manipur, the BJP has once again reposed faith in N Biren Singh and he has been elected the leader of the legislature party. He will again take oath as the Chief Minister of the state.
BJP Legislature Party meeting has been called in Uttarakhand on Monday. Defense Minister Rajnath Singh will attend this meeting to be held in Dehradun as Central Observer and Minister of State for External Affairs Meenakshi Lekhi as co-observer. In Uttarakhand, the BJP achieved historic success by winning two consecutive elections, but the situation is still not clear about who will become the Chief Minister in this hill state. Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami has lost the election from Khatima.
Yogi Adityanath in Uttar Pradesh and Pramod Sawant in Goa are considered almost certain to become the Chief Minister again. Who will be made the Deputy Chief Minister in Uttar Pradesh, this screw is still stuck. Because Keshav Prasad Maurya has to face defeat in the assembly elections. He was the Deputy Chief Minister in the outgoing government. It is believed that next week the party will complete the process of government formation in the three states.
