Mumbai: 11 days after the announcement of the Maharashtra assembly election results, the suspense on the CM face has finally ended. The BJP Legislature Party has elected Devendra Fadnavis as the leader. Chandrakant Patil and Sudhir Mungantiwar proposed the name and Pankaja Munde supported Fadnavis’ name as Chief Minister of the state. Devendra Fadnavis was unanimously elected as the Leader of Maharashtra BJP Legislative Party
According to sources, the names of Eknath Shinde and Ajit Pawar have been finalized for the Deputy CM. After the meeting of the Mahayuti MLAs, the Chief Minister and 2 Deputy CMs will meet the Governor and stake claim to form the government.
The swearing-in ceremony will take place tomorrow i.e. on December 5 at Azad Maidan. The Chief Minister and both Deputy CMs will take oath in it. It is not clear how many ministers will take oath with them or not.
After being unanimously elected as the Leader of Maharashtra BJP Legislative Party, Devendra Fadnavis says “I thank everyone from the legislative party that you all chose me unanimously. I thank our central observers Vijay Rupani and Nirmala Sitharaman also. As you all know these were historic elections and these elections have proved that ‘Ek hai toh safe hai’ and ‘Modi hai toh mumkin hai’. We have restarted our series of victories with Haryana and now Maharashtra has given such a thumping mandate that I completely bow down before the Maharashtra voters. I also thank CM Eknath Shidne and Deputy CM Ajit Pawar and our other allies.”
