Maharashtra CM Devendra Fadnavis met PM Modi in New Delhi to address a three-week deadlock over cabinet portfolio distribution among the Mahayuti alliance partners—BJP, Shiv Sena, and NCP. Fadnavis and Deputy CM Ajit Pawar also held talks with Amit Shah and JP Nadda, but Shiv Sena leader Eknath Shinde was notably absent. Sources indicate BJP may retain key portfolios like home and revenue, while Shiv Sena and NCP could get less significant roles if they request more berths. Shinde, initially vying for the CM post, now holds urban development, raising political tensions within the alliance.
