Maharashtra CM contest: Fadnavis rises as leading candidate as Eknath Shinde ‘withdraws’

 



Maharashtra CM contest: Fadnavis rises as leading candidate as Eknath Shinde ‘withdraws’—is a new BJP figure on the horizon? 

Maharashtra CM contest: With Eknath Shinde suggesting a retreat, attention now turns to Devendra Fadnavis as a viable aspirant. As the BJP maneuvers through coalition intricacies, the direction of Maharashtra's leadership is precarious amid ongoing discussions and political strategizing. 

Maharashtra CM contest: The political scene in Maharashtra has been obscure since the decisive triumph of the BJP-led Mahayuti coalition in the state’s latest Assembly elections. With the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) claiming a firm majority with 132 seats out of a total of 288, the inquiry into who will take up the position of Maharashtra Chief Minister has emerged as a central point of political discourse. 


As the coalition partners—BJP, Shiv Sena, and Nationalist Congress Party (NCP)—navigate through sensitive negotiations, the attention is directed toward the upcoming chief ministerial contender. 


But who will assume control of Maharashtra? 

While Eknath Shinde has indicated his readiness to back any candidate determined by the Mahayuti leadership, his role within the upcoming government remains ambiguous. 


There has been no announcement on whether the caretaker CM of Maharashtra will stay on as Chief Minister, take another role, or step back entirely. 

Concurrently, Shiv Sena leader Sanjay Shirsat pointed out ongoing attempts to marginalize Eknath Shinde, a claim that complicates the political narrative further. "We have already conveyed that we are not an obstacle to the choice of the CM," a senior Shiv Sena source informed The Hindu, reiterating the party’s support for the BJP’s resolution while showing uncertainty regarding Shinde’s prospects.
