May 26, 2014 19:11 (IST)
Nirmala Sitharaman, the BJP's spokesperson, takes oath. She will take over as Minister with Independent Charge of Commerce. Her inclusion was a surprise to many, as she is not even a minister of state yet.

Prakash Javadekar and Piyush Goyal also take oath. Mr Javadekar is likely to take charge of the Environment and Information and Broadcasting Ministry. Mr Goyal will be in charge of the Coal Ministry.
