Modi lays stress on consensus at NDA meet

The Hindu  

The spirit of an alliance government taking its place after 10 years of single-party majority regime was very much in evidence at the National Democratic Alliance’s Parliamentary Party meet held on Friday to elect Prime Minister Narendra Modi as its leader. Lok Sabha election results 2024 updates In his address to the MPs and leaders, Mr. Modi emphasised that he would strive to ensure “sarvamat” or consensus in all decisions of his next government, and said that the NDA wasn’t just an agglomeration of parties but a grouping of those who put the nation first and were known, in the 22 States governed by these parties, for good governance. He also recalled stalwarts of the old NDA under former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee, such as socialist leaders Sharad Yadav and George Fernandes, for their crucial contributions. Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde invoked late Shiv Sena leader Balasaheb Thackeray during his speech to underline the importance of the Sena-BJP alliance, considered one of the oldest in the NDA, which has continued in a modified form after the former’s split.
