After the assembly elections in Maharashtra, the efforts to form a new government have intensified. The date of 5th December has also been announced for the swearing in, but there is still a situation of suspense regarding the Chief Minister’s face. Meanwhile, Chief Minister Eknath Shinde suddenly came to the center of politics. On one hand, discussions were going on from Delhi to Mumbai regarding the post and name of the Chief Minister, when two days ago Shinde went to his village Daregaon located in Satara district. Since then Daregaon has remained the center of politics. Perhaps this is the first time in the politics of the state that the center of Maharashtra politics is not Mumbai but Daregaon.
When interim Chief Minister Eknath Shinde went to the village, discussion started in politics across the country. Eknath Shinde says that his health is not well and hence he has come to the village, then the opposition is making a point of discussion that Shinde is upset. Despite getting the majority, the non-announcement of the candidate for the post of Chief Minister has also created confusion among the people. Eknath Shinde of Daregaon has explained his role in the background of all these developments. After Delhi and Mumbai, now Daregaon of Satara has become the center of state politics. Since Eknath Shinde is in Daregaon, everyone’s attention is there.
What did Eknath Shinde say?
Chief Minister Eknath Shinde answered many questions while talking to the media. He also said that because of the love that the people of the state have given to Mahayuti, the opposition has nothing to do and now they are saying all kinds of things. Talking about the post of Chief Minister, Eknath Shinde said, I am the people’s Chief Minister. I worked like a common man for two and a half years.
He said that people’s problems were solved under the Mahayuti government. Came up with many plans. Crores of people of the state are benefiting from this. After that elections were held under my leadership as Chief Minister. Both the Deputy Chief Ministers were also together. We got tremendous success. Then to avoid any confusion, I held a press conference last week. Explained his entire role in this. I had also told about my decision. He also answered the question of who will be the Chief Minister and told that the decision in this regard will be taken by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Amit Shah.
What did Shinde say on the discussion of demand for ministerial post?
Do you want the post of Home Minister, Assembly Speaker? On this question, Eknath Shinde said, this will be discussed in the Grand Alliance. After that the decision will be taken. People have put a big responsibility on us. We want to fulfill people’s expectations. So I don’t pay attention to what the opponents are saying. I need not repeat my position. He will not get the post of leader of the opposition, so now he is discussing all kinds of things.
Eknath Shinde further said that his health deteriorated due to the rush in elections. I used to attend eight to ten meetings every day. The Chief Minister said, but now my health is fine.
Let us tell you that a team of doctors is monitoring Shinde. A day earlier, a statement was also issued by the doctors in which it was said that he had to face some problems after catching cold. Treatment is being done and the condition is also improving.
