This was disclosed by BJP President Rajnath Singh after meeting President Pranab Mukherjee along with NDA leaders here to present the letters of support.
"Today we had a meeting of the BJP Parliamentary party and we have adopted a unanimous resolution to elect Narendra Modi as our leadder. All the NDA allies were also present. We have requested the President to invite Narendra Modi for the swearing-in as the Prime Minister," Singh told reporters at the forecourt of the Rashtrapati Bhavan here.
