NEW DELHI: Days after Lok Sabha results were announced, a meeting of the newly elected MPs was held on May 7 at Parliament, in which Prime Minister Narendra Modi was present.
The meeting held at the SamvidhanSadan of the Parliamentbuilding, where PMModi was welcomed with chants of ‘Modi Modi’. As he arrived to join the meeing, the Prime Minister respectfully touched the Constitution of India with his forehead.
JD(S) MP-elect HD Kumaraswamy supported the proposal of naming NarendraModi as the Leader of NDA Parliamentary Party.
TDP chief Chandrababu Naidu said, “We are congratulating all of us as we have won a wonderful majority. I have seen during the election campaign, for three months PM Modi never took any rest. Day and night he has campaigned. He stated and ended with the same spirit. In Andhra Pradesh, we had three public meetings and one big rally and it has made a huge difference in winning the election in Andhra Pradesh…”
After the BJP failed to cross the halfway mark needed to form a government in its own right it has to depend on allies TDP and JD(U).
Rajnath Singh addressing the gathering said, “I want to congratulate all the newly elected MPs…Today, we are here to elect the leader of the NDA I believe that PM NarendraModi’s name is the most suitable for all these posts…”
BJP national president JP Nadda addressing the meeting said, “The NDA got a majority in the LokSabha Elections and we also formed out govt in Odisha. I am happy to inform you that the NDA Govt was also formed in Andhra Pradesh. In Arunachal Pradesh too, we formed our Government for the third time. In Sikkim, NDA formed its government too…“We remember that 10 years ago, there was an indifferent India, it was said about India that nothing was going to change here and today, 10 years later, under the leadership of PM Modi, the same India has become an aspiring India and has set out with the resolution of a developed India…,” Nadda said.
PM Modi was greeted by TDP chief N Chandrababu Naidu and Bihar CM- JD(U) chief Nitish Kumar among other leaders at the meeting. Nationalist Congress Party (NCP- AjitPawar) Chief AjitPawar, LokJanshakti Party (LJP) Chief ChiragPaswan were also present at the meeting.
