After massive win, Shinde silent on who will be next Maha CM
Maharashtra Chief Minister and Shiv Sena chief Eknath Shinde on Saturday thanked voters for the landslide Mahayuti victory during the 2024 Maharashtra assembly elections.
With Vishnu Deo Sai set to be at the helm of BJP government, all eyes have now turned to the new cabinet formation. Political leaders are engaged in intricate maneuvers, exploring various permutations and combinations to secure crucial positions within the government. As the anticipation builds, preparations for the government formation are in full swing.
The event is expected to witness the presence of several prominent leaders, including Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Home Minister Amit Shah, and BJP leader J.P. Nadda, among others. According to sources, Senior MLA Brijmohan Agrawal is likely to be appointed as the Protem Speaker.
In the ministerial lineup of 12, there might be a fine balance with five representatives each from the OBC and the tribal communities. After the election of a tribal chief minister, there could be only four ministers from the tribal category. Discussions are also ongoing for the deputy CM position, with Arun Sao from the OBC category and Vijay Sharma from the General category being considered.
