Mumbai: Suspense continues to loom over who will be the next Maharashtra Chief Minister on Tuesday, three days after the ruling BJP-led Mahayuti emerged victorious in the assembly elections, shattering the Congress-led Maha Vikas Aghadi’s dream to wrest power.

Union Minister and Republican Party of India-Athawale (RPI-A) chief Ramdas Athawale on Monday claimed that Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister, Devendra Fadnavis, is poised to become the next Chief Minister of the state.

BJP leader Devendra Fadnavis and Eknath Shinde are reportedly competing for the chief ministerial position in Maharashtra.

Devendra Fadnavis, a senior BJP leader, arrives in Delhi following the BJP-led coalition's victory in Maharashtra's assembly elections. Fadnavis is viewed as a leading candidate for the chief minister's role.

From starting his career as a humble corporator to becoming Maharashtra's youngest mayor and its first BJP chief minister, Devendra Fadnavis' political journey has been proof of persistence and acumen.

The Mahayuti alliance consisting BJP, Shiv Sena and NCP emerged victorious in the Maharashtra assembly elections.

Ajit Pawar held a meeting with newly-elected legislators from his faction of the Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) at his residence on Sunday, where the Chief Ministerial post was discussed.
