Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh’s darling Devendra Fadnavis, who hails from Nagpur, has become the Chief Minister of Maharashtra for the third time. By taking oath as Chief Minister at a grand ceremony in the presence of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Union Home Minister Amit Shah, Chief Ministers of NDA-ruled states including the Chief Ministers of Uttar Pradesh and Assam, Fadnavis has now completely established the fact that the BJP will rule the state. I will remain in the role of elder brother.
By taking oath in a grand and grand manner in the presence of famous industrialists and countless film stars including Shahrukh Khan, Salman Khan and Sanjay Dutt, Devendra Fadnavis also gave the message that the powerful section of the country is with him and he is ready to play a bigger role in the future. Is.

But amid all this, many questions are being raised regarding the game of coaxing and coaxing by Shiv Sena leader Eknath Shinde. Now it is being asked whether Eknath Shinde really became so angry at not being made the Chief Minister that he left the meeting and went to his village? Despite knowing the numbers of Maharashtra Assembly and the number of seats of BJP, was Shinde really assuming that like last time, BJP will make him the Chief Minister this time also? Or is the story behind this something else?
In fact, this display of displeasure had become more of a compulsion for Eknath Shinde than his wish and desire. In fact, while breaking Shiv Sena and joining BJP, Eknath Shinde had made similar allegations on Uddhav Thackeray that he has bowed before the Delhi court and is insulting the legacy of Balasaheb Thackeray. But this time Shinde Saheb himself was in the same situation. The message was being spread among the people of Maharashtra and especially among the Shiv Sainiks that Eknath Shinde has also bowed down before the Delhi court, is insulting the legacy of Balasaheb Thackeray and, like Uddhav Thackeray, is doing politics of familyism by putting his son in front. Are.
Eknath Shinde was also well aware that if this thing stuck in the minds of the people of Maharashtra and the Shiv Sainiks, then his party could break. After losing badly in the assembly elections, Uddhav Thackeray is looking for a similar opportunity.
To save Shiv Sena and protect his reputation, Eknath Shinde once again played the same old trick of angry Indian politics. This also sent a message to the public that Eknath Shinde bravely fought the Delhi court, courageously put forward his conditions before Amit Shah, but after persuasion by Shiv Sainiks, he made a big sacrifice in the interest of the people of Maharashtra and instead of the Chief Minister, Accepted to become Deputy Chief Minister.
However, even after becoming the Deputy Chief Minister in the Fadnavis government, the challenge of saving Shiv Sena will remain in front of Eknath Shinde. If Uddhav Thackeray or his son Aditya Thackeray comes into the field and starts aggressive politics, then in that situation Eknath Shinde, his son Shrikant Shinde and senior leaders of Shiv Sena will also have to come forward and make open statements. Although these statements will not make any difference to the stability of the Mahayuti coalition government due to numerical strength, Devendra Fadnavis may have to go to Eknath Shinde’s house every time to save his honour.
