This will be the first such NDA meeting of this scale during the second term of the Modi government after a number of old and key BJP allies, including Uddhav Thackeray’s Shiv Sena, Shiromani Akali Dal, and the Janata Dal (United), severed ties with the party over a host of issues.
In a big move ahead of next year’s Lok Sabha elections, the Bharatiya Janta Party (BJP) invited National President of Lok Janshakti Party (Ram Vilas) Chirag Paswan for the July 18 meeting of the NDA.

Notably, the announcement comes days before the opposition’s second mega huddle on July 17 in Bengaluru.

In the NDA government, remarkable works have been done in many areas including poor welfare, restoration of cultural pride, economic progress, defense and security of the country, India’s strong reputation abroad.”
