Political shockwaves reverberated through Maharashtra as Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis made a startling revelation on Zee 24 TAAS‘ ‘To the Point’ program.
Fadnavis disclosed an unexpected offer from Uddhav Thackeray, the Chief Minister at the time, during a period of political turbulence in 2022. Thackeray, in a bid to counter Eknath Shinde’s rebellion, proposed Fadnavis as the next Chief Minister, offering the support of his party’s MLAs, the channel said in a press release.
The offer, revealed by Fadnavis, sheds light on the intricate power dynamics and strategic maneuvering within Maharashtra’s ruling factions. Facilitated through Thackeray’s personal assistant Milind Narvekar’s phone, the conversation underscored the urgency and confidentiality surrounding the proposal.
Fadnavis’ disclosure not only exposes a pivotal moment in Maharashtra’s recent political history but also offers insights into his relationship with the Thackeray family. His suggestion for Aditya Thackeray to enter electoral politics adds depth to his political foresight and leadership acumen.
