Why is Narendra Modi taking 10 days to become prime minister?
A media report suggests that according to Bharatiya Panchang (calendar), May 26 happens to be day of Som Pradosh.
It is a day to pray for Lord Shiva at pradosh (dusk). It is not known if Modi will fast on Monday or not, but most devotees of Shiva do.
