Narendra Damodardas Modi was sworn in as Prime Minister at the Rashtrapati Bhavan here on Sunday for the record third term. The Modi 3.0 new team includes 30 Cabinet ministers, 5 Ministers of State with Independent Charge and 36 Ministers of State who took oath of office along with him.
PM Modi became the first leader since former Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru to be elected for a third consecutive term after completing previous terms. President Droupadi Murmu administered the oath of office and secrecy to the Prime Minister and ministers in a star-studded ceremony at the forecourt of the Rashtrapati Bhavan. The swearing-in ceremony was also attended by leaders from India’s neighbourhood and the Indian Ocean Region who were among dignitaries and special invitees.
The grand ceremony, featuring bugles, ceremonial guards, and floral displays, took place at the forecourt of the Rashtrapati Bhavan and lasted 155 minutes, with approximately 9,000 attendees from various walks of life.
Along with Modi, who took oath in the name of God, senior BJP leaders Rajnath Singh, Amit Shah, Nitin Gadkari, Nirmala Sitharaman and S Jaishankar were sworn in as Cabinet ministers, indicating the PM Modi’s emphasis on continuity and his reliance on the experience of the party’s heavyweights as they held senior positions in his second term.
BJP president J P Nadda returned to the Union Cabinet after five years, while former Madhya Pradesh chief minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan and ex-Haryana CM Manohar Lal Khattar were the fresh faces in the Modi Cabinet.
BJP leaders Piyush Goyal, Jyotiraditya Scindia, Dharmendra Pradhan and Bhupender Yadav, who were earlier in the Rajya Sabha but have now been elected to the Lok Sabha, were among those retained as ministers.
