Mumbai: All eyes on Uddhav Thackeray who will be taking oath as Maharashtra CM for the first time. The oath-taking ceremony has been held in Mumbai’s Shivaji Park.
Meanwhile, the question arises that who will be the deputy CM well recent reports suggest that NCP leader Ajit Pawar is likely to take the post of deputy CM.
Ajit Pawar had earlier joined hands with the BJP and become the deputy chief minister in the Devendra Fadnavis-led government in the state.
He later stepped down from the post citing “personal reasons”, following which Fadnavis too stepped down as chief minister stating that BJP did not have the majority to form the government.
He was sworn into the assembly yesterday as an elected member of the Legislative Assembly (MLA). The oath was administered by the newly appointed pro-temple speaker Kalidas Kolambkar at the Raj Bhavan.
Later in the evening, the Shiv Sena-NCP-Congress alliance met Governor Bhagat Singh Koshyari and claimed to form the government, following which the governor announced that Shiv Sena chief Uddhav Thackeray would take oath as the chief minister of the state on Thursday.
