BJP, Shinde camp in huddle as Fadnavis all set to be CM again

Maharashtra crisis updates: Shiv Sena leader Eknath Shinde was on Thursday sworn in as Maharashtra chief minister, while BJP’s Devendra Fadnavis took oath as deputy chief minister. Governor Bhagat Singh Koshyari administered the oath of office to them at Raj Bhavan in south Mumbai shortly after 7.30 pm. Shinde began by paying tributes to late Shiv Sena leaders Bal Thackeray and Anand Dighe. His supporters shouted slogans hailing Thackeray and Dighe as he finished taking the oath. Earlier on Thursday, BJP president JP Nadda said Fadnavis would be part of the new Maharashtra cabinet led by Shinde, minutes after Fadnavis announced he will not be in the government. Fadnavis had sprang a surprise when he announced that Shinde will be the next chief minister. His announcement defied expectations that he would return to the post with the support of the Shinde faction. "Development of the state is my priority. I will take all sections of society along with me," Shinde told after the ceremony.

    Person who was CM & LoP has been made Dy CM, shocking, says Sharad Pawar

    I don't think that the one who led MLAs to Assam had expected more than the post of Dy CM. But in BJP, as per order be it from Delhi or Nagpur, the CM post has been given to Eknath Shinde... The person who was CM & LoP has been asked to take oath as Dy CM. It's shocking, said Sharad Pawar.

    Shiv Sena leader Deepak Kesarkar on reports Fadnavis is unhappy with Deputy CM post

    Shiv Sena leader Deepak Kesarkar on Devendra Fadnavis becoming Deputy CM said, "It was being said that Fadnavis is upset with Dy CM post but I know him very well. He is so efficient that he works well on all posts. He is an asset to the state. If he's there in ministry to finish his incomplete dream projects, it'll be good."

    Despite having 106 MLAs, BJP took this decision (of making Eknath Shinde the CM). It means they have shown large heartedness...As Devendra Fadvanis enters the cabinet, it will be a boost for the cabinet. It'll be a help to get clearances from Delhi, Kesarkar said.

    "Matter of pride, a different day for Maharashtra...2 parties that believe in Hindutva & had parted ways-have come back together...We're back together 2.5 yrs later. Our 50 MLAs made imp contributions. They wanted Shinde sahab as CM, BJP accepted it," Deepak Kesarkar added.

    "Their tallest leaders PM Modi, HM Shah, JP Nadda displayed spirit that if they have to stay a few steps back to go ahead with Hindutva...They had no reservation about having a Dy CM from their side. They welcomed it with an open heart. A good government is being formed," Kesarkar mentioned.

    Shiv Sena MLAs were demanding that the alliance with Congress and NCP should be ended but Uddhav Thackeray ignored these MLAs and gave priority to MVA alliance partners, that's why these MLAs intensified their voices, Fadnavis.
