Around 50,000 people witnessed the ceremony, with massive security arrangements and 14 LED screens set up for the public. Opposition leaders, farmers, ‘Lakhpati Didis’, and representatives from various social organisations were also invited.

This swearing-in will be followed by a meeting of chief ministers and deputy CMs from the National Democratic Alliance (NDA), to discuss national development issues and the 50th anniversary of the Emergency. The conclave marks a critical gathering of the ruling coalition as it strategises for the upcoming Maharashtra and Jharkhand elections.

  1. Nayab Singh Saini took oath as the chief minister of Haryana for the second time in a high-profile ceremony in Panchkula. Saini’s return as Haryana CM comes after his successful leadership in the recent state elections, following his earlier appointment in March this year, replacing Manohar Lal Khattar.
  2. Anil Vij, a Punjabi-Khatri MLA from Ambala Cantt, and Krishan Lal Panwar, a Scheduled Caste MLA from Israna in Panipat district, were among the BJP MLAs who took oath as council of ministers in the Haryana government.

He worked to end the evils prevalent in the society and gave a message to the society. Today it is my good fortune that I have got the opportunity to worship at the feet of Lord Valmiki.
