JD(U), TDP Vie For Lok Sabha Speaker Post Amid Swift NDA 3.0 Cabinet Formation, Here’s Why

The BJP has managed to swear in a full cabinet of 72 ministers just four days after the verdict, despite falling short of a majority in the recent elections. This achievement comes in stark contrast to the previous Narendra Modi administrations, which took 10 and seven days respectively after the poll results to be sworn in. This time, the BJP's top leadership had to engage in extensive discussions with allies, particularly N Chandrababu Naidu's Telugu Desam Party (TDP) and Nitish Kumar's Janata Dal-United (JDU), to finalise ministerial positions. However, a significant question remains unresolved: who will occupy the Lok Sabha Speaker's post?

However, all eyes are now on TDP supremo Chandrababu Naidu, who, commanding 16 MPs, has emerged as the principal mover and shaker in the National Democratic Alliance (NDA).
