Prime Minister Narendra Modi will chair a meeting of the Union Council of Ministers on Sunday that is likely to be the last such exercise during the second term of his government as the Lok Sabha elections are expected to be held in April-May this year.
The Council of Ministers meeting will be held on Sunday at the Sushma Swaraj Bhawan in the national capital at 9:30 am. The meeting holds significance, as the BJP-led ruling National Democratic Alliance has expressed confidence in retaining power at the Centre for a third term. The Election Commission is likely to announce the poll schedule in a couple of weeks. In 2014, the Election Commission had announced the schedule for the nine-phased Lok Sabha elections on March 5 and the results were declared on May 16. In 2019, the poll panel had announced the seven-phase Lok Sabha elections on March 10 and the results were declared on May 23.(ANI)
