On June 7, President Droupadi Murmu formally invited Prime Minister Narendra Modi to form the next government, after the National Democratic Alliance’s Parliamentary Party elected him as its leader.
Speaking at the NDA parliamentary party meeting, Mr. Modi said that mutual trust was at the core of this alliance, which is committed to the principle of ‘ sarv pantha sambhava (all sects are equal)‘. Claiming that NDA partners were all known for good governance, he noted that the alliance was forming a government at the Centre at a time when its members were also in power in 22 States.
