Maharashtra’s New Government: Who Will Be the Next CM?
The buzz around Mahayuti’s Chief Minister pick is heating up as discussions continue among coalition partners. While names are being floated, sources say the final decision will only come after the BJP-appointed Central observer weighs in.
Here’s what’s happening:
Aaditya Thackeray has been chosen as the Shiv Sena (UBT) legislature party leader, a significant move for the opposition.
Ajit Pawar, Deputy CM and NCP leader, shared that the Mahayuti partners are actively working to finalize the governance framework.
On November 24, 2024, the Election Commission handed over the official list of elected candidates to the Governor, but sources hint that forming the government may take a little longer.
Ajit Pawar also highlighted the role of the Ladki Bahin scheme, a women-focused financial assistance program, in helping secure the Mahayuti’s big win in the assembly elections.
With so much at stake, Maharashtra’s political scene is one to watch. Who will emerge as the next CM? Stay tuned!
