INDIA bloc won't chase power now, but it plans to breath down NDA's neck
Negotiations are underway with the Bharatiya Janata Party's NDA allies on ministerial and other berths. The coalition's new MPs will meet at Samvidhan Sadan, the new name of the Central Hall in the old parliament building, on Friday at 11:30 am, after which Modi will meet President Droupadi Murmu to stake the NDA's claim to form the government.
NDA chief ministers, including Bihar CM Nitish Kumar and Andhra Pradesh CM-designate N Chandrababu Naidu, have been invited to the Friday meeting, which will be addressed by Modi. He's expected to speak on the mandate given to the NDA and the broad roadmap for the next government.
When he meets President Murmu, Modi will submit letters of support from 14 NDA partners.
