Nirmala Sitharaman, Kiren Rijiju leave for Manipur to decide next chief minister

Hindustan Times  

NEW DELHI: Union finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman and law and justice minister Kiren Rijiju, who are the Bharatiya Janata Party’s central observer and co-observer respectively for the election of the leader of the Manipur BJP legislature party, have left for Imphal on Sunday to meet the newly elected MLAs of the state. Union finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman and law and justice minister Kiren Rijiju will meet the newly elected Manipur MLAs in Imphal. Earlier on Saturday, both N. Biren Singh and T. Biswajit Singh met with union home minister Amit Shah and BJP president JP Nadda in New Delhi. So, we will wait for the party high command to take a call on when the chief minister will take oath.” Unlike Uttar Pradesh, where the second-time chief minister Yogi Adityanath is set to take oath on March 25, BJP has not yet revealed the names of the chief ministers of the other three states- Manipur, Goa and Uttarakhand- even after 10 days of the election results.
