BJP-led NDA meeting in New Delhi
Naidu on Thursday and is set to take part in the NDA meeting. News agency PTI, citing TDP sources, reported that Chandrababu Naidu is expected to be in New Delhi until June 9 for Narendra Modi's swearing-in ceremony.
After Narendra Modi's election as the leader of NDA MPs, senior members of the alliance such as Chandrababu Naidu and Nitish Kumar of the Janata Dal (United) will likely to join the prime minister for a meeting with President Droupadi Murmu to present her the list of parliamentarians supporting him.
Modi may be sworn in over the weekend, possibly Sunday, PTI reported. The NDA has 293 MPs, comfortably above the majority mark of 272 in the 543-member Lok Sabha.
TDP, which has emerged as 'kingmaker' in the NDA government formation at the Centre with with 16 MPs, is likely to join the Union cabinet, a party spokesperson told PTI on Thursday.
The TDP will also seek special status for revenue-starved Andhra Pradesh, which lost IT behemoth Hyderabad to Telangana during the state’s bifurcation in 2014.
This is not the first time that the TDP has been in government with the NDA at the centre. Late TDP leader GMC Balayogi was the Speaker of the Lok Sabha when Atal Bihari Vajpayee was the prime minister. However, he died in a chopper crash in Andhra Pradesh in 2002.
According to Shiv Sena sources, instead of his son and three-term MP Shrikant Shinde, Maharashtra chief minister Eknath Shinde wants other senior MPs to be considered for ministerial roles.
Bihar chief minister Nitish Kumar, who will meet his party’s 12 parliamentarians in Delhi on Friday morning, is likely to demand four ministerial berths and special status for the state where the NDA won 30 out of the 40 Lok Sabha seats on offer.
Speaking to reporters on Wednesday, senior JD(U) leader and Bihar minister Vijay Kumar Choudhary said, “The JD(U) is part of the NDA and will remain with it. But, there are certain demands of the JD(U) related to the financial condition and economy of Bihar that must be fulfilled by the Centre. Our demand for special category status for Bihar is fully justified and needs to be fulfilled. We stick to our demand for SCS for Bihar.”
Preparing to take oath for a third straight term as the head of a coalition government, Modi on June 5 chaired a meeting of the ruling alliance's members who unanimously elected him as its leader.

Who is Kulwinder Kaur, the CISF constable that slapped Kangana Ranaut?
The woman CISF constable, Kulwinder Kaur, who alleged slapped the newly elected BJP MP Kangana Ranaut at the Chandigarh airport on Thursday was triggered by a remark the actor made during the farmers protests in 2020.
In a viral video, Kulwinder was seen saying, “My mother there," referring to the Kangana's statement saying women in the farmers protest were paid ₹100 each to sit at Delhi borders.
“Kangana Kehti hai aurate 100-100 rupee mein baithi thi aurate farmer protest mein, yeh baithegi wahan pe? Meri maa baithi thi jab isne bayan diya tha (Kangana said the women were sitting in the farmers protests for ₹100. Will she go and sit there? My mother was sitting there and protesting when she made that remark)," Kulwinder said.
Kulwinder, who has now been suspended and faces a police case, also said she had reacted to the actor-politician "disrespecting farmers".
According to reports, the CISF constable belongs to a family of farmers.
Following the incident, the BJP MP shared her “concern" for increasing “terrorism and extremism" in Punjab.
Kangana also shared said that the incident happened at Chandigarh airport during security check.
“As soon as I came out after the security check, the lady in the second cabin, a CISF security staff came from the side, hit me on my face and started abusing me. When I asked her why she did so, she said that she supports farmers' protest," she said.
"I am safe but I am concerned about the terrorism and extremism that is increasing in Punjab..." she added.

It was the summer of 1986 , life in India was going as usual . Rajiv Gandhi had been the prime minister for 2 years and Congress dominated the entire political scenario of the country on the account of the sympathy votes they garnered after the death of Indira Gandhi in 1984 . The economy had begun to grow at 5% after roughly 3 decades of economic stagnancy . The mood in the country was upbeat and the politicians in the Raisina corridor of Delhi were preparing for the next elections ( mind you this was the time before the Bofor scandals broke out and scandalized the Rajiv Gandhi Government)
(General Krishnaswamy Sundarji)
On the morning of 2nd May ,1986 a phone rang in the Military Operations Directorate ( MOD) in Army Headquarters New Delhi , now it was no ordinary phone call , it was different. The call had directly come from the Director of Intelligence Bureau ( IB) informing the army headquarters that Chinese had occupied Indian territory in Arunachal Pradesh and were stocking up their positions and preparing for a War like which happened in 1962 . The message was immediately conveyed to then Chief of army staff General Krishnaswamy sundarji .
Now Sundarji was an unconventional army chief .A first generation army officer , son of a Physics professor and a Maths teacher , he was a Tamil Brahmin ( Tambram)as they call today . He had joined the army rather than MBBS just to prove his father that he was a brave man . In the army , he had the reputation for being a startegic thinker and an intellectual . Without any delay , he sprung into action . The Chinese had occupied the Thiag La ridge in Arunachal Pradesh overlooking Tawang and were demanding indian army retreat from Arunachal Pradesh and the government handover Arunachal Pradesh to China which they claim was South Tibet.
(Indian soldiers in Arunachal Pradesh 1986)
This was preposterous according to Sundarji , he immediately moved the 17th Mountain division to Arunachal Pradesh under Major General JM Singh and asked the 33 Corps located in Tamil Nadu to move to Arunachal Pradesh . For 4 months , the indian and the Chinese troops looked eyeball to eyeball . The government in New Delhi was nervous . The Chinese were dead sure to call the Indian bluff as they knew that India didn't have roads to supply and sustain their troops for more than a year
.
The winter continued and politicians in New Delhi grew nervous . In absence of roads , the indian army was using mules to stock supply, this was unfeasible according to Major general JM Singh in the long run as the Chinese had superior all weather roads . Infrastructure in Arunachal Pradesh had been neglected for a long time . The winter was over and the Chinese were preparing to teach India another lesson . Surprisingly Sundarji was completely quiet during those months refusing to give interviews. For 6 months , he had worked on a plan to mobilize troops and teach the Chinese a lesson , Audacious of him I would say!
(MI-17 Helicopters)
The spring of 1987 arrived and the standoff was continuing . The Atmosphere was tense . And Sundarji made the first move . Using the newly induced Mi-17 Russian helicopters along with older Mi-8s he airlifted 3 brigades (10,000 troops) overnight and outflanked the Chinese . Now Indian troops had an immense advantage sitting at the mountain tops within fortified positions looking down at the Chinese troops below . All day , using microphones Indian army soldiers would blast messages in Mandarin humiliating and demoralising the Chinese . The logistics and supply lines of Chinese were cutoff. In fact the situation became so bad that the PLA soldiers started committing suicide . The Chinese were incensed at this . The Indian ambassador in Beijing was summoned and was abused by the Chinese foreign minister in the most unparliamentary language .
Before the Chinese could react , Sundarji Struck again . He moved another Infantry division based in Karnataka to Arunachal Pradesh and occupied the Namka Chu valley . In 1962 , indian army had been brutally defeated by the PLA there and they had occupied the Namka Chu valley which gave PLA towering altitude advantage over the Indian army garrisons located in Arunachal Pradesh and Sikkim. Not only was the Namka Chu valley reconquered but the area was supplemented with Mi-35 attack helicopters and Bofor guns ... The Chinese were really terrified then . In a mere 14 days , they had lost the advantage they had gained over 25 years.
(A shortsighted PM)
All this happened without Rajiv Gandhi even getting a whip of it . When the complexity of Situation was known , Rajiv Gandhi lost his cool . General Sundarji was summoned to PMO and when he was asked about the plans to deal with Chinese , he replied nonchalantly that the army was ready to go on an offensive and occupy roughly 10,000 Sq Km in Tibet ridge line and hold on to it and ultimately force the PLA to retreat to pre-1962 positions . As he said these words , there was silence in the room and Rajiv Gandhi was looking at him bewildered .
What followed was a shameful assertion of Indian political establishment lacking a spine . Sundarji was reprimanded by the PM and was asked to move back , which he unwillingly did . His Secretary remembers that he told the PM and the defence minister that India was losing a golden chance and the country would pay for it in future. Ironically it turned out to be true in 2017.
Rajiv Gandhi and Congress got brownie points and won praise from China apologists for dealing with the Chinese in a mature manner . Now 35 years later , the question is Was General Sundarji right? Today , the answer is yes . We as a country are paying price for short term Political brownie points .
Now Sundarji was not limited to China only , he scared the shit out of General Zia in 1987 by conducting an excercise involving 500k troops in Rajasthan border . He was the first indian army chief who openly argued that Pakistan should be prevented from being a nuclear state and was an advocate of conducting nuclear tests .in fact the 1998 pokhran tests were based on the plans formulated by him in 1988.
Ironically, the Chinese were impressed with a man of Sundarji's calibre and invited him for a visit in 1993 after his retirement. In Beijing , when the Marshal of PLA asked Sundarji what he would like to eat , with a poker face , the general replied ,"I as an Indian would like to drink Peking Soup" , which meant that he could manage and predict the Chinese easily needless to say the PLA marshal was left red-faced and could smile only in reply.
Yet today , general sundarji remains a controversial man , maligned by congress affiliated media and journalists just because he stood up against the PM Rajiv gandhi .
