As the dust settles on Maharashtra's Assembly elections, the suspense thickens around the next Chief Minister. With the BJP's dominance and ongoing negotiations, will Eknath Shinde reclaim his position or will Devendra Fadnavis take the reins?

Senior BJP leader and former minister Sudhir Mungantiwar on Monday made a big announcement related the formation of Government in Maharashtra. Mungntiwar declared Devendra Fadnavis's name for Chief Minister's post.

The name of Devendra Fadnavis has been finalised as the new chief minister of Maharashtra who will be elected as the legislature party leader in a meeting to be held either on December 2 or 3, a senior BJP leader claimed on Sunday night.
