On Wednesday, Shinde announced that his Shiv Sena faction will accept any decision taken by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Shah and there will be no obstacle from his side.

Meanwhile, in the Opposition Maha Vikas Aghadi camp, there are rumblings over Shiv Sena (UBT) leaders leaving the alliance. After Mahayuti’s massive sweep gaining 230 out of 288 seats, the grassrot cadre of Sena (UBT) is criticising the “effectiveness” of the MVA. Sources said, Sena (UBT) chief Uddhav Thackeray, party leaders Aaditya Thackeray and Sanjay Raut are keen on maintaining the alliance to “present a united opposition against the BJP”.

Apart from that there are merely two more days to go for the swearing-in ceremony of the new CM. Along with CM and Deputy CMs, 20 MLAs will take oath as Cabinet Ministers, sources said. Regarding seat-sharing, 10 BJP MLAs will secure cabinet berths while six Shinde Sena MLAs and four NCP (Ajit Pawar faction) MLAs will take oath as Ministers.
