Modi to host dinner for his council RK News New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi will host all his 44 ministers to dinner Monday in Delhi, said reports. Anant Geete, the Shiv Sena minister in the union government, is reportedly flying down to attend the event. The Shiv Sena and the PMs party are at a delicate point in their relations—as the BJP gears up to form the new government in Maharashtra, it has to decide whether it will tie-up with the Sena after an acrimonious split in September ahead of the state election. Negotiations for a reunion have reportedly not begun in full earnest. It is five months since the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance or NDA won the general elections and on the menu at dinner today. Modi is also expected to discuss the governments plans to push through important reforms like Foreign Direct Investment in insurance through Parliament in the winter session. Over the weekend, his government freed diesel prices from government control—the biggest-yet reform by his government and one which targets one of Indias costliest subsidies.
