Along with refreshments, the MPs will be given ministerial presentations on PM's Swachh Bharat Abhiyan and Saansad Adarsh Gram Yojana (SAGY) at the tea-party organised as part of Modi's 'Diwali Milan'.
"The MPs will be given presentations on Swacchh Bharat Abhiyan and Saansad Adarsh Gram Yojana by the ministers concerned for their support and participation in making them a success. It will be followed by high tea," Information and Broadcasting Minister Prakash Javadekar told PTI.
The presentation on Swachh Bharat Abhiyan will be given by Urban Development Minister M Venkaiah Naidu.
The Diwali Milan get together hosted by PM is significant as it comes ahead of government formation in Maharashtra, amid speculation of a possible BJP-Shiv Sena tie-up.
Union Minister Anant Geete said all Shiv Sena MPs will be present at PM's tea party but clarified that party supremo Uddhav Thackeray will not attend as the get together was only meant for NDA MPs.
