BJP's prime ministerial-elect Narendra Modi will reach Gujarat Bhavan here Friday and busy himself with deliberations regarding government formation before the swearing-in due May 26.
Modi is likely to stay put in Gujarat Bhavan after reaching Delhi May 23 and immediately busy himself with the formation of the next government at the centre.
He is to hold meetings with those hopeful of getting a berth in the next union government, both from his own party and allies, IANS was reliably informed.
Modi will go to meet BJP president Rajnath Singh at his residence. He may also go to Keshav Kunj, the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh office in Delhi, to meet Mohan Bhagwat if the RSS chief is present.
A meeting with ailing former prime minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee is also on the cards.
It is also learnt Modi is likely to dress "simply" for his swearing-in but it could not be confirmed if he would choose western clothes over Indian ones, in which he is usually attired.
