New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi's third-term swearing-in ceremony at Rashtrapati Bhavan witnessed an unexpected guest, which has now become the talk of social media. A video capturing the moment when BJP MP Durga Das Uikey greeted President Droupadi Murmu after completing the oath procedure revealed the presence of a mysterious animal in the background.
Speculations regarding the identity of the animal have been rampant, with users on social media offering various theories.
Some suggested it could be a leopard due to its appearance and gait, while others proposed it might be an ordinary domestic cat. The video clip garnered widespread attention, prompting users to debate over whether the animal was edited into the footage or genuinely present at the ceremony.
Amid the buzz surrounding the video, questions remain unanswered about the true nature of the creature. Rashtrapati Bhavan has been approached for comment on the matter.
The swearing-in ceremony itself saw President Murmu administering the oath of office and secrecy to a 72-member Council of Ministers, comprising 30 cabinet ministers, 36 Ministers of State (MoS), and five MoS with independent charge. Notable figures such as Rajnath Singh, Amit Shah, Nitin Gadkari, Nirmala Sitharaman, and S Jaishankar retained their positions as Cabinet ministers, while the new Council of Ministers welcomed 11 members from the NDA alliance partners.
