The Union cabinet met on Friday and passed a resolution for the dissolution of the 16th Lok Sabha, setting in motion the process of constituting the new house and formation of the Government after the conclusion of the General elections.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who chaired the meeting, later met President Kovind to handover the resolution that will pave the way for constituting the 17th Lok Sabha. President Kovind accepted the resolution, but has asked PM Modi and his cabinet to work until a new government is formed.
The Election Commission will then issue a formal notification constituting the new House. It is speculated that Narendra Modi may be sworn-in on May 30.
