As Devendra Fadnavis gears up to return as Maharashtra's Chief Minister, internal dissent brews within the Shiv Sena (Eknath Shinde faction). Eknath Shinde has reportedly pushed for his son, Shrikant Shinde, to be named Deputy Chief Minister, a move that has drawn criticism from within the party. Meanwhile, coalition dynamics point to the BJP's dominance, with key roles for other leaders being discussed. The swearing-in ceremony is set for December 2 at Shivaji Park, Mumbai.
