Maharashtra Politics: Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis is in Switzerland these days. Here Eknath Shinde, who became Deputy CM from CM, has returned to his village. The distance between these two leaders has become not only geographical but also political. It is being told that Shinde is angry these days.
After the formation of the government, there is continuous resentment in the Mahayuti. Sometimes regarding ministerial posts and sometimes regarding departments. Now a dispute is going on in Mahayuti regarding the Guardian Minister of two districts. Shinde’s Shiv Sena is angry over the appointment of Guardian Minister. Guardian Minister means the minister who is appointed to oversee the development of a particular district.
What is the reason for Shinde’s anger?
In the grand alliance government, Guardian Minister was appointed in Raigarh and Nashik districts, in which Girish Mahajan from BJP quota got the responsibility of Nashik and from NCP quota, party president Sunil Tatkare’s daughter and minister Aditi Tatkare got the charge of Raigarh district. Shiv Sena had made a demand from the government for the in-charge of these two districts. When this was not agreed to, Eknath Shinde became angry and once again went to his village.
Currently on hold on the appointment of both Guardian Ministers
Although BJP is trying to convince them. For this, Girish Mahajan and Chandrakat Bawankule have been appointed from BJP. In view of the displeasure of Shiv Sena leaders and workers, the appointment of ministers in-charge of both the districts has been put on hold.
Sanjay Raut took a jibe at Mahayuti
It is also being discussed that now NCP leaders are also angry with BJP who is trying to convince Shiv Sena. While the leaders of Mahayuti are talking about bridging the differences, the news of resentment has given the opposition an opportunity to taunt the government. Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Sanjay Raut took a dig at Mahayuti and said that this government has so much majority, yet it is not able to run properly.
CM Fadnavis is on foreign tour
Eknath Shinde’s displeasure has also come to light only when Fadnavis is out of the country from 20 to 24 January. The hope is that after his arrival, Shinde’s anger will be discussed, but till then, angry Shinde will remain an important character in Maharashtra politics.
