The Mahayuti alliance has secured a commanding victory in the Maharashtra elections 2024. Speculation continues over the next chief minister, with Devendra Fadnavis and Eknath Shinde as frontrunners.

Devendra Fadnavis had promised in 2019 that he will be back. And 2.5 years later he did. Cut to 2024, the Maharashtra Assembly poll results show that he is back yet again. This time handsomely and possibly with a bigger role.

While there is no confirmation on the next CM face from the Mahayuti alliance, which comprises Shiv Sena (Eknath Shinde) and NCP (Ajit Pawar), Fadnavis’s name is at the top of the list in the speculation.

The BJP-led Mahayuti alliance is poised for a landslide victory in the Maharashtra assembly elections, securing a commanding lead in over 220 seats. While the alliance celebrates its triumph, the question of whether Devendra Fadnavis or Eknath Shinde will become the next chief minister remains a point of intense speculation.
