TIL Desk/National/New Delhi/ The BJP parliamentary board meeting, which is on now, has decided to delay the formation of government in Uttar Pradesh. The board said that before deciding on the UP CM it would want a consensus of all MLAs. The board meeting was called to discuss the probable names for the chief ministerial berth in UP and Uttarakhand where it has won two-third majority in the recent assembly elections and can form the government alone. The UP CM will be sworn in tomorrow.
The board meeting was attended by the party president Amit Shah and Prime Minister Narendra Modi among others. The last board meeting of the party discussed the strategy for government formation in Goa and Manipur. The PM and the Amit Shah were also felicitated by the parliamentary board for the poll wins.
While the parliamentary party is meeting the suspense continued over who will be the new Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh, four days after the BJP’s resounding triumph in the key Hindi heartland state, where the party won 325 seats with its allies.
While the BJP scrambled to form its governments in Goa and Manipur, where it was not even the single largest party, hurriedly cobbling together post-poll alliances, amid the charge of “stealing” the mandate, the party leadership is taking its own sweet time to decide the Chief Minister of the country’s most populous and politically significant state.
