Opposition Is Still In Shock , Says Maharashtra BJP President Chandrashekhar Bawankule
Maharashtra BJP President Chandrashekhar Bawankule says, “The opposition is still in shock… They should introspect. When our candidates lost in the Lok Sabha elections, we introspected and worked, and today the result is before everyone… They have just the narratives of lies. But, people of Maharashtra are with truth, with Mahayuti… Central leadership and the three leaders of Maharashtra (Eknath Shinde, Devendra Fadnavis, Ajit Pawar) will sit together and they will take the decision (regarding CM’s face).”

Shiv Sena Leader Shambhuraj Desai On CM Face For Maharashtra
On CM face for Maharashtra, Shiv Sena leader Shambhuraj Desai says, “Who would lead our Mahayuti and who would be the CM face of Mahayuti – our three leaders Eknath Shinde, Devendra Fadnavis and Ajit Pawar would sit together and discuss this. Whatever they decide will be accepted by all the MLAs of Mahayuti and the same decision will be implemented…Every party feels that a leader of their own party should get the CM post. If you ask me, as a Shiv Sainik, I would say that our main leader Eknath Shinde should get the CM post. The same goes for BJP leaders who want Devendra Fadnavis to get the post…But all three leaders will sit together and discuss. A solution would come out after discussions.”

Shine Was Unhappy When BJP Named Fadnavis As New CM, Claims Ramdas Athawale
Union Minister Ramdas Athawale says, “…When Eknath Shinde came to know that the BJP high command has selected Devendra Fadnavis as the CM (of Maharashtra), he is a bit unhappy, which I can understand. But, BJP has got 132 seats and hence I think there should be a way, Devendra Fadnavis should be made the CM. Eknath Shinde can assume the charge of deputy CM. If he is not willing to be the deputy CM, he can be made union minister in PM Modi’s cabinet… The people of Maharashtra want Devendra Fadnavis to be the CM…”

Message For Muslims From Maharashtra: Smell The Coffee And Shun Confrontation With BJP

The message from Maharashtra is clear: no Godot is coming to their rescue. The proverbial fat lady has sung—and it’s all over for the community’s “secular” friends, bar the shouting.
