CHANDIGARH, Haryana’s O.B.C. Leader Nayab Singh Saini today took oath as Chief Minister of Haryana at a ceremony in Panchkula attended by a galaxy of N.D.A. leaders, including Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
Anil Vij, Krishan Lal Panwar and Rao Narbir Singh were among those administered the oath of office by Haryana Governor Bandaru Dattatreya.
Bhartiya Janta Party’s choice of the day for the swearing-in ceremony is significant as it is Valmiki Jayanti. Sage-poet Valmiki is the author of Hindu epic Ramayana and a revered figure, especially among Dalits.
Haryana can have a maximum of 14 ministers, including Chief Minister.
Chief ministers of several N.D.A. ruled states were in attendance as were B.J.P. president J.P. Nadda, Union ministers Rajnath Singh and Amit Shah.
