Fadnavis returned to Mumbai, did not meet top leaders in Delhi

Devendra Fadnavis News: Even after the landslide victory of the Mahayuti (BJP, Shiv Sena, and other allies) in the assembly elections in Maharashtra, the confusion over the post of Chief Minister remains. Since the election results, a series of meetings are going on in Mumbai and Delhi, but the final decision has not been taken yet.

Fadnavis' Delhi visit and speculation

BJP veteran Devendra Fadnavis recently reached Delhi to attend a private event, but he did not meet the top leaders of the party. According to sources, Fadnavis returned directly to Mumbai after attending the wedding ceremony of Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla's daughter. After his visit, speculation intensified that the situation regarding the CM post is still not clear.

Shinde's resignation and preparation for the new government

The term of the Maharashtra Legislative Assembly is ending today. According to sources, the current Chief Minister Eknath Shinde may submit his resignation today. Discussions have intensified among the allies of the Mahayuti and the leaders of the BJP about who will be the next Chief Minister.

Will Fadnavis become the Chief Minister?

Devendra Fadnavis, who led the Mahayuti to a historic victory with his strategy and leadership skills, is considered the strongest contender for the post of Chief Minister. Given his political acumen and administrative experience, the BJP may again entrust him with the command of Maharashtra.

Will Shinde get a second term?

The Mahayuti fought the elections under the leadership of Eknath Shinde, and Shinde played an important role in keeping the government stable as the Chief Minister. The Shinde faction of Shiv Sena hopes that keeping in mind his role, he should be retained as the Chief Minister.

Will a new face come?

The BJP often takes surprising steps in its decisions. In such a situation, it is also possible that the party puts forward a new face for the post of Chief Minister.

BJP's position is strong

In the Maharashtra elections, the BJP contested 149 seats and won 132 seats, emerging as the largest party. The Shinde faction of Shiv Sena won 57 seats and the NCP won 41 seats. Based on these results, BJP's claim for the post of Chief Minister seems strong.

Political equations of Mahayuti

Fadnavis' strategy is being considered important behind the success of Mahayuti. His electoral planning and ground hold gave Mahayuti a record-breaking victory. However, Fadnavis could not become the Chief Minister in 2019, when Shiv Sena's Uddhav Thackeray formed an alliance with Congress and NCP.

What can happen next?

After the resignation of Eknath Shinde today, the political situation in Maharashtra may become more clear. The name of the Chief Minister will be announced only after getting the green signal from Delhi. It will be interesting to see whether BJP trusts Fadnavis keeping in mind his experience and mass base or gives Shinde a chance again to maintain the unity of Mahayuti.

Conclusion

At present, there is suspense about the post of CM in the politics of Maharashtra. Both Fadnavis and Shinde are strong contenders, but the final decision is in the hands of the top leadership of BJP. The coming few days will decide the future of Maharashtra politics.
