There are speculations that former Deputy CM Ajit Pawar could be the Deputy CM in the Uddhav Thackeray led government in Maharashtra. However, Ajit Pawar will not be taking oath alongside Uddhav Thackeray on Thursday at Shivaji Park in Mumbai.
Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis on Tuesday quit from his post, hours after Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar withdrew his support by submitting his resignation.
The letter, submitted to the Maha governor at 10.20 am today, stated that BJP's Devendra Fadnavis, who took oath as CM on Saturday, doesn't have the requisite numbers of MLAs on his side to form the government.
