Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis will stay in the government and also lead the party’s charge in the state Assembly elections. The party high command has rejected his desire to resign from the government in the wake of the Lok Sabha results in Maharashtra. It asked him and other senior leaders to get cracking together as a team ahead of the October Assembly elections.
Accepting sole responsibility for the unexpected Lok Sabha results early this month, Fadnavis had wished to resign and work full-time for the party organisation with an intent to better the show in the Assembly elections. Even before Tuesday’s meeting, he was asked to continue in the government. The official word came in front of important national and state leaders. The possibility of a change of guard at the state and Mumbai BJP units was dismissed at the meeting.
