Senior AAP leader Sanjay Singh on Sunday predicted that the new government under Narendra Modi will collapse within a year, as it is unlikely to meet the expectations of the NDA’s members.
Modi was sworn in as prime minister on Sunday for a third consecutive term, leading a 72-member Union Council of Ministers that emphasizes continuity, youth, and experience while also rewarding partners in the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA).
“This new Central government has a lifespan of six months to a year. It will not last longer than that,” Singh stated during a press conference at the Circuit House.
The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader pointed out past instances where one NDA government lasted just 13 days and another collapsed within 13 months, suggesting that the new central government would face a similar outcome.
In a pointed comment about Modi, Singh remarked, “He will not fulfill the expectations of the NDA constituents. He will continue his approach of dividing political parties,” the Rajya Sabha MP said.
Singh also warned the TDP and JDU, advising them to appoint their own Speaker, implying there’s no assurance that their MPs wouldn’t defect to Modi’s side.
Along with Modi, senior BJP leaders including Rajnath Singh, Amit Shah, Nitin Gadkari, Nirmala Sitharaman, and S. Jaishankar, all former ministers, took their oaths as cabinet ministers at the Rashtrapati Bhavan.
