The Mahayuti alliance leaders—Devendra Fadnavis (BJP), Eknath Shinde (Shiv Sena), and Ajit Pawar (NCP)—met Union Home Minister Amit Shah in Delhi to resolve the deadlock over Maharashtra’s next Chief Minister. The BJP, winning 132 of 288 seats in the Assembly polls, is pushing for Fadnavis to take the top post. However, concerns over alienating Maratha voters complicate the decision. Ajit Pawar indicated the swearing-in could occur by Nov 30 or Dec 1, with two deputy chief ministers. While Shinde expressed full support for BJP's choice, the delay has drawn criticism from the opposition Maha Vikas Aghadi.
