BJP State Prez Chandrashekhar Bawankule pins hopes on
Devendra Fadnavis as Maha CM after 2024 Assembly Elections
BJP State President Chandrashekhar Bawankule on Monday raised political eyebrows following proclamation that Maharashtra Deputy CM Devendra Fadnavis would take oath as the next CM of Maharashtra after the 2024 State Assembly election.
The BJP State chief also egged his partymen to ensure that 45 of the total 48 Lok Sabha seats from Maharashtra should be bagged by the ruling ‘Mahayuti’ coalition
In the midst of addressing a conclave of BJP party workers in the State’s Bhandara district, Bawankule said that the party cadre should ensure 45 of the total 48 Lok Sabha seats from Maharashtra should be bagged by the ruling ‘Mahayuti’ coalition headed by CM Eknath Shinde’s camp of the Shiv Sena, the BJP and Ajit Pawar’s rebel NCP faction) in the 2024 general election.
Bawankule added that the first resolution of this meeting should be that when Narendra Modi takes oath as the Prime Minister for the third time (after the 2024 Lok Sabha election) 45 of the MPs should be from the ‘Mahayuti’ and that the MP from Bhandara should be elected with the largest number of votes.
However, the BJP State chief then further added that a new government would be formed in Maharashtra after the October 2024 election and that Fadnavis would be sworn-in as CM at Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai.
He also added that the second resolution of 2024 will be when the Maharashtra Assembly elections are held in October and a new government is formed within November 30. Then, Devendra Fadnavis should be taking the oath as CM at the Wankhede stadium.
He further added that there was “only one tiger in Maharashtra – Devendra Fadnavis.
This isn’t the first time that the BJP state president has spoken of Fadnavis being sworn-in as the next CM of the State.
Earlier, Deputy CM Ajit Pawar, whose rebel NCP faction forms the third component of the Eknath Shinde-led Mahayuti government, had said that such statements projecting a particular leader as the next
CM were deliberately made by the party brass of all the three parties in a bid to enthuse their respective cadres.
