New Delhi: BJP chief Amit Shah on Thursday reached the official residence of Prime Minister Narendra Modi hours ahead of the swearing-in ceremony and formation of the new government.
This is the third round of meeting between the top two leaders of Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in the last three days.
During the meeting, Modi and Shah are likely to give a final shape to the list of MPs who will take the oath of office and secrecy along with Modi.
Modi and Shah had earlier held deliberations on Tuesday and Wednesday on the formulation of the new government.
Sources suggested the new council of ministers will reflect the saffron party's rise in strength in states like West Bengal and Telangana. Many leaders are of the view that most key members of the previous dispensation could be retained.
As far as allies are concerned, both the Shiv Sena and the JD(U) are expected to get two berths (one cabinet and one MoS) each, while the LJP and the SAD may be given one berth each.
