“Stand firmly with BJP”: Union MoS Inderjit Singh refutes reports presenting him as ‘rebel’

New Delhi [India], October 13 (ANI): Union Minister of State, Rao Inderjit Singh has refuted the media reports presenting the Bharatiya Janata Party leader as a ‘rebel’ with the support of nine MLAs from Haryana.

Calling the reports “baseless and unfounded”, the MoS for Planning and Culture said that he and his fellow MLAs firmly stand with the BJP.

“Some media channels are running baseless news in which I am being shown as a rebel along with nine MLAs. All this is baseless and unfounded news. I and all my fellow MLAs stand firmly with the Bharatiya Janata Party,” Rao stated in a post on X.

Nayab Singh Saini is set to be sworn in as the Chief Minister of Haryana on October 17. The ceremony is slated to be held at Panchkula at 10 am at Dussehra Ground in Sector 5.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi will be present, along with senior leaders from the BJP and Chief Ministers and Deputy Chief Ministers from NDA-ruled states.

“We have received the nod of the Prime Minister that on October 17, in Panchkula, the Chief Minister and council of ministers will take oath,” Union Minister and former Haryana Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar told reporters here on Saturday.

BJP came out victorious in the Haryana assembly elections and is set to form the government for a historic third time. BJP won 48 seats in comparison to Congress’ 37. Three independent MLAs from Haryana, Devender Kadyan, Rajesh Joon and Savitri Jindal have also extended their support to the BJP.

The elections for the 90 seats of the Haryana assembly were held on October 5 and the counting was held on October 8.

The oath-taking ceremony is anticipated to attract around 100,000 attendees, including several Chief Ministers from BJP-ruled states, Union ministers, and senior party leaders.

Speculation suggests that the new Haryana cabinet may include Anil Vij, Krishan Lal Midha, Shruti Chaudhary, Arvind Kumar Sharma, Vipul Goel, and Nikhil Madan.
