Defence Minister Rajnath Singh will be the deputy leader.
Realising that the numbers are stacked in favour of the government, the Bharatiya Janata Party on Tuesday appeared reluctant to support the no-confidence motion that the Trinamool Congress has threatened to move against the ruling United Progressive Alliance, but is gearing up to corner it on the issue of Foreign Direct Investment in retail by seeking a vote on it.
Home Minister Rajnath Singh will be the deputy leader of the party in the Lok Sabha and Finance Minister Arun Jaitley in the Rajya Sabha.
