I thank all the voters who stood behind Mahayuti and gave this landslide victory.” — ANI (@ANI) Shiv Sena leader Naresh Mhaske credited Eknath Shinde’s leadership and criticised opposition figures, stating, “Maharashtra of government has expressed its faith in Mahayuti.

The public is seeing what is happening to Uddhav Thackeray’s Shiv Sena today. The people have stated that Eknath Shinde is the one who is capable of leading Balasaheb Thackeray's Shiv Sena. By way of their votes, the public has slapped a slipper on the face of Sanjay Raut.

I am a Shiv Sena worker, and I think that Eknath Shinde should be the chief minister.” Leadership Decision Expected Soon The BJP is expected to convene its Maharashtra Legislative Party meeting on 25 November, where the leadership for the state will be finalised. The alliance has also planned an oath-taking ceremony on 26 November.

While Eknath Shinde is seen as a frontrunner for the chief minister’s post, the BJP’s pivotal role in the alliance’s success adds complexity to the decision-making process. The broader Yuti alliance meeting, scheduled alongside the BJP’s discussions, is likely to influence the final decision. This election follows a period of political realignment in Maharashtra.

The Mahayuti alliance emerged as a formidable force after Ajit Pawar joined hands with the BJP and the Eknath Shinde-led Shiv Sena faction, causing significant shifts in the state’s political dynamics. The Maha Vikas Aghadi, which previously held power in Maharashtra, struggled to maintain its voter base amidst internal divisions and defections. The election results highlight a significant consolidation of support for the Mahayuti alliance, reshaping the political narrative in the state.

As the Mahayuti alliance basks in its electoral success, all eyes are on the leadership selection process. The decision will set the tone for the alliance’s governance in Maharashtra, a state known for its economic and political significance.
