Nearly a month after the Rajasthan election results were declared, several BJP MLAs will be inducted into the cabinet on Saturday. Governor Kalraj Mishra will administer the oath of office to the BJP MLAs at a ceremony at Raj Bhavan in Jaipur.
Chief Minister Bhajanlal Sharma met Mishra at Raj Bhavan and sought his permission for the swearing-in ceremony, according to an official statement.
The governor gave his consent for the ceremony, which will be held at Raj Bhawan at 3:15 pm, the statement said.
Ahead of the ceremony, Ramganj Mandi MLA Madan Dilawar reached the BJP office here and met senior party leaders. Garhi MLA Kailash Meena arrived in Jaipur from Udaipur. Udaipur MLA Tarachand Jain also left for Jaipur.
Preparations for the swearing-in ceremony are underway at Raj Bhavan. Ahead of the cabinet expansion, Sharma met the BJP high command in Delhi on Friday.
The results for the Rajasthan assembly elections were announced on December 3 with the BJP winning 115 of the 199 seats on which polling was held.
The party declared Sharma, a first-time MLA, as the chief minister and Diya Kumari and Prem Chand Bairwa as his deputies on December 12.
