Narendra Modi is all set to take oath as Prime Minister of India on June 9, marking his third term, sources told ET.
The BJP leader will meet President Droupadi Murmu on June 7 at around 1 pm to stake claim to form the government.
Though the Bharatiya Janata Party could not get a majority on its own in the polls, the party-led alliance secured 293 seats out of 543. BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) on Monday declared Modi as their leader of coalition after winning 293 seats in the Lok Sabha polls.
In addition to sweeping Madhya Pradesh, Delhi, Himachal Pradesh, and Uttarakhand, the BJP's biggest success came from Odisha, where it won 19 out of 21 Lok Sabha seats and also form its first government in the state.
The BJP's campaign, focusing on "Odisha asmita," successfully ended the over two-decade-long rule of Naveen Patnaik's government.
"The people of the country have expressed their trust in the NDA for the third consecutive time. This is an unprecedented moment in the history of India. I thank my family for their love and blessings. I assure the countrymen that to fulfil their aspirations, we will move forward with new energy, new enthusiasm, and new resolves," PM Modi earlier said on X.
