Despite the landslide victory of the Mahayuti (Grand Alliance) in the Maharashtra Assembly elections, the NDA has yet to announce the name of the next Chief Minister of the state. The opposition has been continuously claiming that there is infighting within the Mahayuti over the CM position,

A day after the Mahayuti leaders' meeting with Union home minister Amit Shah in New Delhi, caretaker CM Eknath Shinde left for his village Dare Tamb in Mahabaleshwar taluka in Satara district. Sources said the BJP is working on him to get him to accept the deputy CM's post.

A new government may be formed by December 2, after alliance leaders Fadnavis, Shah, Nadda, Pawar, and Shinde held a meeting last night.

According to sources, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), which emerged as the single largest party in the Maharashtra assembly election, is backing Devendra Fadnavis as the next CM and has been pushing for two deputy CMs - from Eknath Shinde-led Shiv Sena and Ajit Pawar-led Nationalist Congress Party.

Will Shiv Sena leader Eknath Shinde lose the Maharashtra CM chair? If yes, then what could he get in return? Let dive into a few prospects.

Eknath Shinde might not become deputy CM. He was the chief minister in the previous government. Shinde's aide said the position is not suitable for him. He will, however, join the cabinet. Shinde's Shiv Sena will choose another leader for the deputy CM role.

Eknath Shinde, who served as chief minister in the outgoing Maharashtra government, is unlikely to accept the post of deputy CM in the new dispensation, his close aide Sanjay Shirsat said on Thursday.

The Mahayuti alliance in Maharashtra, comprising the BJP, Shiv Sena, and NCP, is yet to finalise its government formation even a week after the assembly election results were declared. Shiv Sena leader Sanjay Shirsat revealed that discussions on the Chief Minister’s post are underway,
