Narendra Modi was sworn in as Prime Minister for a third term at Rashtrapati Bhavan. The ceremony included 72 ministers, with 11 from NDA allies. "This new term represents a commitment to coalition governance," said Modi. This marks his first coalition government after the BJP fell short of a majority, securing 240 seats. Modi now joins Jawaharlal Nehru as the only Prime Minister to serve three consecutive terms. The new Council of Ministers reflects broad social representation, including OBCs, SCs, STs, and minorities. Key BJP leaders and NDA partners attended the event, which also saw guests from neighboring countries.
