TNN, New Delhi :The BJP will include all its pre-poll allies in the government though the party has numbers to form government on its own.Soon after it became clear that the BJP would cross the majority mark of 272 on its own, party chief Rajnath Singh said, “We thank our allies for their support. To run a government, you need a majority but to run a country, you need the support of everybody. We will accept support of all those who want to help us in running the country. All NDA allies who have fought the elections with us will have due representation (uchit bhagidari) in the government.On the formation of cabinet, he said, “Cabinet formation is the prerogative of the Prime Minister and we will discuss all these issues after we sit together.”A visibly elated Rajnath Singh gave wholesome credit to Narendra Modi for the party’s spectacular electoral performance and said the role of seniors including L K Advani would be decided collectively and with consensus.
