A grassroots level leader, he brings with him rich political, legislative and administrative experience. I am confident that he will work towards taking Maharashtra to greater heights.”




On Thursday, Eknath Shinde and BJP's Devendra Fadnavis took oath as the chief minister and deputy chief minister of Maharashtra respectively.

For the unversed, Uddhav Thackeray submitted his resignation days after Shinde led a rebellion alleged that Thakeray ignored Shiv Sena MLAs' demand that the alliance with Congress and NCP should be ended.
