Maharashtra: Opposition took a jibe at the CM's name not being finalized even after 11 days, said- a game of cat and mouse is going on

Mahayuti got a great victory in the Maharashtra assembly elections. However, even after more than a week of the results, it has not been decided who will be the Chief Minister of the state. There is a discussion that the new government is going to be formed in the state on December 5, but the name of the CM is not known. But now it is almost certain that the CM post is going to go to the BJP, but the suspense remains on the name. At the same time, the opposition is constantly making sarcastic comments about this. It says that a cat-and-mouse game is going on in Maharashtra.

Mahayuti won by 230 seats.

In the assembly elections held on November 20 in Maharashtra, the alliance of BJP, Eknath Shinde's Shiv Sena, and Ajit Pawar's Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) Mahayuti retained power by winning 230 out of 288 seats. BJP emerged as the largest party by winning 132 seats while Shiv Sena won 57 and NCP won 41 seats. However, even after the declaration of election results on November 23, no decision has been taken on who will be the Chief Minister.

A leader of a party that claims to be the biggest...: JMM leader

On the political developments in Maharashtra, JMM leader Manoj Pandey said, 'It is beyond comprehension that the party that claims to be the biggest is unable to elect a leader. It is not known who will be made the Chief Minister. This is their organizational weakness. The current Chief Minister disappears now and then. A cat and mouse game is going on there (Maharashtra). They (Mahayuti) are leaderless.'

All this is Delhi's game: Sanjay Raut.

On the political developments in Maharashtra, Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Sanjay Raut said, 'Eknath Shinde is the caretaker Chief Minister of Maharashtra. How can a Chief Minister disappear? A game is going on in Maharashtra. It has been 10 days. They (Mahayuti) have a huge majority but even then they are not able to declare the name of the Chief Minister till now. Till now no claim has been made in the Raj Bhavan to form the government. This is all a Delhi game. The 'Markhat Leela' going on in Maharashtra is being run from Delhi.'

If everyone had agreed, why would it have taken so much time: Congress

Congress MP Pramod Tiwari said, 'We can understand one thing - if the government is not formed with full majority, then numbers have to be brought. But here they registered more than the two-third majority. Then what are they working on? The person who betrayed the party formed by Balasaheb Thackeray, who broke it, is desperate to become CM. Let's see who becomes CM. If everyone had agreed, why would it have taken so much time.'
