Modi was sworn into office for a third consecutive term Sunday , followed by his council of ministers, a group that consists of 30 cabinet ministers. Among them were several key allies like Amit Shah, former home minister, and Nirmala Sitharaman, who helmed the finance ministry in the previous government.
