New Delhi: National Security Advisor Ajit Doval is likely to join a power-packed Indian contingent at the World Economic Forum Annual Meeting in the Swiss ski resort town of Davos later this month.
At least four Union ministers -- Ashwini Vaishnaw, Shivraj Singh Chouhan, Pralhad Joshi and K Ram Mohan Naidu -- as well as six CMs are also expected to be there along with over 100 top CEOs from the country at the five-day annual meeting from January 18-24, which will be held under the theme of 'a spirit of dialogue'.
The chief ministers are Devendra Fadnavis of Maharashtra, N Chandrababu Naidu of Andhra Pradesh, Assam's Himanta Biswa Sarma, Madhya Pradesh's Mohan Yadav, Telangana's A Revanth Reddy and Jharkhand's Hemant Soren.
While Reddy is from Congress, Soren from Congress ally Jharkhand Mukti Morcha and Naidu from Telugu Desam Party (an ally of BJP), the other three CMs are from BJP. Karnataka's Deputy Chief Minister D K Shivakumar (from Congress) is also expected to be there.
Among the Union ministers, Naidu is from TDP, while the other four are from BJP.
