Vijay and Suvendu Adhikari are scheduled to take their oaths as Chief Ministers at 11 AM on Friday, a time that has become a common choice for such ceremonies in Indian politics. This preference is rooted in traditional Hindu astrology, which deems late morning as a favorable period for significant events. While there is no constitutional mandate for this timing, political insiders and astrologers suggest that the 'Shubh Muhurat' or auspicious timing plays a crucial role. Beyond cultural beliefs, practical reasons also contribute to this choice. The late-morning slot allows for better security arrangements, coordination with Raj Bhavans, and ensures that guests can arrive and depart without logistical issues. It also helps avoid morning traffic and conflicts with other political schedules. For leaders like Vijay and Suvendu Adhikari, whose swearing-in ceremonies are expected to attract large crowds, the timing provides an opportunity for extended political activities and celebrations throughout the day.
