Inside story: Ajit Doval, Kanwal Sibal or Shyam Saran, who will be the next NSA?

With Bharatiya Janata Party cruising into the power in centre with ease after a phenomenal performance in the Lok Sabha Elections, the speculation of who will be a part of Narendra Modi’s government have caught lightening fast speed. According to the sources, Daily Bhaskar is learnt to have known that Ajit Doval, former Intelligence Bureau Chief, along with prominent names like Sanjiv Tripathi, former RAW Chief and two former foreign secretaries of India Kanwal Sibal and Shyam Saran are in the race for the top post of National Security Advisor. Mr Doval among all these people is believed to be the favourite for the post. He may not be a member of the BJP, but he's considered close enough to the party's leadership to get a look in for the post.
