NEW DELHI — Nitish Kumar-led Janata Dal (United) which has 12 MPs in the newly constituted Parliament will get two Cabinet berths and two MoS roles, party sources have said.
One of the party leaders told the news agency KNT that the Narendra Modi-led NDA government, which is likely to take oath on Saturday, will give two ministries – Railway and Petroleum to the JDU. He said two MoS roles will also be given to the party.
The Nitish Kumar-led party may also press for a Common Minimum Programme for the new NDA government and a coordination committee to ensure its implementation. A Common Minimum Programme is a resolution, outlining the shared agenda of parties in a coalition.
