BJP Names Observers, E Shinde’s Son Junks Deputy Buzz In Maharashtra Race

Published by Webster

Mumbai: 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 newly elected Maharashtra MLAs later today, at which the issue of the next Chief Minister may be settled. No formal announcement has been made so far, but Devendra Fadnavis, a senior BJP leader and two-time former Chief Minister, is widely seen as the frontrunner for the post. The BJP – which recorded a big win in last month’s Assembly election, with help from allies Shiv Sena and NCP (the Eknath Shinde- and Ajit Pawar-led factions) – has delayed naming the new Chief Minister amid backroom talks between the three allies over a power-sharing agreement. A rudimentary deal was announced last week; the Chief Minister will be from the BJP and the two allies will each get a deputy, a repeat of the current formula but tilted in favour of the former. The BJP emerged as the single-largest party in the 288-seat House with 132 MLAs, while the Shinde Sena …

Last Updated: December 02, 2024, 11:48 IST Maharashtra New CM 2024 Live Updates: After more than a week of suspense and speculations, the Mahayuti government may finally announce its choice for Chief Minister today following a massive victory in the Maharashtra assembly elections by the BJP-led alliance parties. Outgoing Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde, who returned to Thane on Sunday evening after being “unwell,” has reopened the door for the much-delayed power-sharing talks among the Mahayuti allies. Shinde is likely to hold meetings today with BJP leader Devendra Fadnavis and NCP leader Ajit Pawar as discussions for the new government continue. On Sunday, Shinde reiterated his earlier statement that the BJP would decide on the new Chief Minister and assured his full support, ruling out any differences in the alliance over the government formation. The BJP, which emerged as the single largest party with 132 seats in the recently-held elections, is proceeding cautiously, as the aspirations of its allies, especially Shiv Sena, are high. Interestingly, the BJP has announced that the oath-taking ceremony for the …

BJP not heeding to Bhagwat`s mandir-masjid advice: Kharge

Published by Webster

Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge accused the top BJP leadership on Sunday of attempting to divide the society by holding surveys at every mosque in the country and said by doing so, the saffron party is disregarding the advice of Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) chief Mohan Bhagwat. Addressing a huge rally organised by a federation of Dalits, minorities, tribals and Other Backward Classes (OBC) at the Ramlila Maidan here, Kharge accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi of not letting people stay united or safe by allowing such surveys. He also asked whether Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leaders will demolish structures, such as the Red Fort, Taj Mahal, Qutub Minar or Char Minar, which were constructed by Muslims. Kharge`s remarks came in the wake of violence in Uttar Pradesh`s Sambhal, where a survey is being conducted at a mosque to ascertain whether a temple existed there years ago. The Congress president also gave a call to Dalits, minorities and OBC communities to remain united as only then will they be able to achieve their goals of protecting the …
