After attending the tea meeting , BJP MP-elect Manohar Lal Khattar said, “It is a ritual of Narendra Modi that he calls people to his residence for a tea meeting.
He only calls those whom he wants to induct into his cabinet. Some formalities were to be done, which I have completed. He has asked to me to stay in Delhi for the next 24 hours. Apart from me, Rao Inderjit Singh and Krishan Pal Gurjar were also present in the meeting”.
