Maharashtra Political Crisis: ఫడ్నవీస్, షిండే మధ్య కీలక చర్చలు

BJP is taking important steps towards forming the government in Maharashtra. With the resignation of Uddhav Thackeray, the largest party, the BJP, is gearing up to take over. There are speculations that Devendra Fadnavis will take over as CM for the third time. Ek Nath Shinde will be the Deputy CM.

Meanwhile, the BJP core committee is meeting at the residence of former chief minister Fadnavis. BJP leaders are discussing the formation of a government. Siti Ravi, party leaders Chandrakant Patil, Girish Mahajan and Praveen Darekar were present at the meeting. The magic figure is 144 with the death of one MLA in the 288 – member Maharashtra Assembly. However, the BJP has a strength of 106 MLAs. In addition, the BJP has the support of 39 Shinde MLAs, 12 Independents, one MNS MLA, two from the BVA party and seven new independents. With this, the BJP has the support of a total of 167 MLAs.

Meanwhile, Fadnavis did not talk to Shiv Sena rebel leader Ek Nath Shinde on the phone to form the government in Maharashtra. The cabinet composition is being discussed mainly. There was a discussion between the rebel camp and independent MLAs about who should be given ministerial posts. It seems that 10-12 of the MLAs in Shinde’s camp will get ministerial posts.
