The swearing-in ceremony of the new BJP government in Haryana is likely to be held in Panchkula on October 15.
Preparations are underway for the event in Panchkula, a senior official said on Friday.
The official said a tentative date for the oath taking is October 15.
"We are preparing the venue for the event," Panchkula's Deputy Commissioner (DC) Dr Yash Garg told PTI over phone.
A district level committee has also been formed under the DC's chairmanship for making necessary arrangements for the oath ceremony.
Ahead of his likely swearing-in as the Chief Minister of Haryana following the BJP's electoral victory, Nayab Saini met with Prime Minister Narendra Modi and other senior BJP leaders in Delhi on October 9.
The Bharatiya Janata Party had indicated during the elections that Nayab Singh Saini, who replaced Manohar Lal Khattar as chief minister in March and hails from the Other Backward Classes, will be its choice for the top post if it wins.
Sources said the event is likely to be attended by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and top BJP leaders, including many chief ministers, of the party-ruled states.
The party ended up with its best-ever haul of 48 seats, 11 more than the Congress. The Jannayak Janta Party and the Aam Aadmi Party were decimated and the Indian National Lok Dal managed to win just two seats.
