According to Jagran, the gathering would discuss the formation of a government on behalf of the Grand Alliance. The NDA won 293 seats in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, giving them a majority. However, the BJP received only 240 seats, which is significantly less than in 2019.
Earlier on Wednesday, the leaders of the parties included in the NDA held a meeting and unanimously elected Prime Minister Narendra Modi as their leader. PM Modi later said that he met our valuable NDA allies. The NDA will work towards building a developed India.
In the Wednesday meeting itself, the allies were told that a formula would be prepared for the division of the cabinet which will be agreed upon. According to unconfirmed sources, instead of any number formula, there is a plan to give proper representation to all the allies.
