Newly elected BJP legislators, including Dilip Ghosh, Agnimitra Paul, Ashok Kirtania, Khudiram Tudu, and Nishit Pramanik, also took their oaths as ministers in the cabinet led by Adhikari at the Brigade Parade Ground in Kolkata.

Adhikari's oath-taking ceremony coincided with the birth anniversary of Nobel laureate Rabindranath Tagore. In the 2026 West Bengal assembly elections, the BJP achieved a remarkable victory by winning 207 out of 294 seats, marking the end of the Trinamool Congress's 15-year rule, while the TMC secured 80 seats.
