Modi will take the Prime Minister's oath for the third consecutive term, today at 7:15 PM. Modi, 73, will be equalling the feat of the first prime minister Jawaharlal Nehru, who won in 1952, 1957 and 1962 general elections. This comes after the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) unanimously passed a resolution to elect Narendra Modi as their leader on June 5.
Along with Modi, his council members will also take their oath. Preparations for the swearing-in ceremony are in full swing. Around 1,100 traffic police personnel of the Delhi Police have been deployed, and arrangements have been made for the delegates as part of the arrangements for PM-designate Narendra Modi's oath ceremony on Sunday.
Apart from this, NSG commandos, drones, and snipers will also guard the Rashtrapati Bhavan for the event.
According to ANI, Delhi has been declared a ‘no-flying’ zone, which means sub-conventional aerial platforms like paragliders, paramotors, hang gliders, UAVs, UAS, microlight aircraft, and remote-controlled aircraft have been banned in the national capital.
The Election Commission announced that the BJP won 240 seats and the Congress 99 seats. BJP had won 303 seats in the 2019 general elections and 282 seats in the 2014 general elections.
