Narendra Modi is set to take the oath of Prime Minister’s office for the third time on Sunday evening at 7:30 PM. Many MPs from the alliance, including BJP members, will also take the oath as ministers alongside him. Discussions are underway regarding the selection of ministers for the new government.
The names of potential cabinet members from Maharashtra, whom PM Modi may include in his cabinet, have surfaced. These names include Nitin Gadkari, Praful Patel, Piyush Goyal, Raksha Khadse, and Ramdas Athawale.
The Shinde faction is expected to receive two ministerial posts, with one likely to be a cabinet post and the other a minister of state post.
