MUMBAI: Following the finalization of Devendra Fadnavis as the Chief Minister of Maharashtra, a key meeting of the Mahayuti alliance scheduled for November 29, 2024, was unexpectedly canceled. Eknath Shinde, the outgoing Chief Minister, departed for his hometown in Satara, sparking speculation that he may not be fully satisfied with the ongoing negotiations surrounding the government formation process.
The meeting was intended to finalize the power-sharing agreement, a critical aspect of the political realignment after the elections. Shinde’s absence raised concerns about the progress of talks within the Shiv Sena and its allies, particularly regarding the division of ministerial portfolios and other significant decisions.
Sources suggest that the cancellation of the meeting is a temporary delay, with plans to reschedule it once Shinde returns from Satara. However, the timing of his departure has added an element of suspense to the leadership decision, with political observers closely monitoring the situation.
As Maharashtra moves forward with its new government formation, the shift in leadership and the uncertainty surrounding internal discussions have created a dynamic political environment. The developments are capturing significant public attention as the state prepares for a new chapter under Fadnavis’s leadership.
