After all alliance partners unanimously passed a resolution endorsing Narendra Modi, the leader of the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance, he said he would strive to ensure unanimity in all decisions of his next government.
The newly elected MPs of the NDA arrived at at the Central Hall of the old Parliament Building for a meeting on cabinet formation ahead of the oath ceremony. Calling the NDA as the most successful alliance In India's history, Modi said,"If I put NDA (alliance) on one side and the dreams and resolutions of the people on the other side, I would say NDA stands for New, Developed and Aspirational India. This is an alliance that is committed to 'Nation First' with the basic spirit of 'Nation First' and not a gathering of some parties for power."
“A very few people talk about it… maybe it doesn’t suit them, but look at the strength of India’s democracy that people gave NDA the opportunity to form governments and serve people in 22 states. This alliance of ours reflects India’s spirit in true sense,” said PM Modi.
The NDA has 293 MPs, comfortably above the majority mark of 272 in the 543-member Lok Sabha. Senior BJP leaders, including Amit Shah, Rajnath Singh and Nadda, have also been holding discussions with allies to work out an amicable formula for their share of representation in the new government.
