Bharatiya Janata Party leader Devendra Fadnavis will be sworn in as Maharashtra Chief Minister at the Azad Maidan in Mumbai on Thursday. Two deputy chief ministers, NCP leader Ajit Pawar and Shiv Sena chief Eknath Shinde, will also be sworn in at the ceremony in the presence of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

Devendra Fadnavis is the man of the moment. He can create history in Maharashtra after raking in a third term. Fadnavis was the first Maharashtra CM since Vasantrao Naik in 1967 to complete a full five-year term,

The new govt of Maharashtra is yet to be sworn in more than a week after the BJP-led NDA, also known as Mahayuti, clinched a landslide victory in state polls.

As the dust settles on Maharashtra's Assembly elections, the suspense thickens around the next Chief Minister. With the BJP's dominance and ongoing negotiations, will Eknath Shinde reclaim his position or will Devendra Fadnavis take the reins?

The Bharatiya Janata Party has named Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman and ex-Gujarat Chief Minister Vijay Rupani as the designated 'observers' for a meeting of its Maharashtra MLAs later today, at which the Chief Minister issue may be settled.

BJP plans to announce Devendra Fadnavis as Maharashtra's new Chief Minister soon. As political negotiations continue, Shinde Sena demands Deputy CM and Home Ministry positions. The final decision rests with Prime Minister Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah.

Amid speculation that his son Shrikant Shinde might get the deputy CM's post and Shiv Sena is keen on the Home portfolio, Eknath Shinde said the Mahayuti allies- BJP, NCP, and Shiv Sena- will decide the government formation through consensus after sitting together.

The name of Devendra Fadnavis has been finalised as the new chief minister of Maharashtra who will be elected as the legislature party leader in a meeting to be held either on December 2 or 3, a senior BJP leader claimed.
