Shillong, May 25: 15 parties, largely from the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA), are expected to attend the inauguration on May 28 despite the growing controversy surrounding the opening of the new Parliament building, which has resulted in 19 opposition parties choosing to boycott the ceremony.

The parties who are expected to attend the inauguration are include Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), Shiv Sena (Eknath Shinde faction), National People’s Party (NPP), Nationalist Democratic Progressive Party (NDPP), Sikkim Krantikari Morcha (SKM), Rashtriya Lok Janshakti Party (RLJP), Apna Dal (Soneylal), Republican Party of India (RPI), Tamil Maanila Congress, All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (AIADMK), All Jharkhand Students Union (AJSU), Mizo National Front (MNF), Yuvajana Sramika Rythu Congress Party (YSRCP), Telugu Desam Party (TDP), Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD), and Biju Janata Dal (BJD).

The Congress, AAP, and TMC were among the 19 opposition political groups who announced their intention to boycott the inauguration on Wednesday. The main justification for this was PM Modi’s choice to inaugurate the new Parliament building rather than President Droupadi Murmu.
