Nayab Singh Saini sworn in as Chief Minister of Haryana

BJP state president and MP from Kurukshetra Nayab Singh Saini took oath as the Haryana Chief Minister.

Haryana : BJP state president and MP from Kurukshetra Nayab Singh Saini took oath as the Haryana Chief Minister, shortly after Manohar Lal Khattar resigned from the post along with other BJP ministers ahead of a Cabinet reshuffle.

Further, BJP leaders Kanwar Pal Gujjar, Moolchand Sharma and Independent MLA Ranjit Singh were sworn in as ministers.

Khattar and all 13 other members of the BJP-led council of ministers submitted their resignations to the Governor as a team of the party’s central observers arrived in Chandigarh.

Shortly after the cabinet — which included three members of coalition partner Jannayak Janata Party (JJP), including deputy chief minister Dushyant Chautala — stepped down, BJP MLAs headed to a meeting of the party’s legislative group. Saini, who is considered close to Khattar, was unanimously elected as the leader of the group at the meeting in Haryana Niwas, BJP MLAs said.
