Maharashtra Cabinet expansion in July, says Deputy CM Fadnavis

The long-anticipated reshuffle and expansion of Maharashtra Cabinet would take place in July, Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis confirmed on Friday, exactly a year after the Sena-BJP government came to power.

On June 30, 2022, the BJP had announced that it would support Shiv Sena leader Eknath Shinde as the new Chief Minister with BJP leader Mr. Fadnavis, former Chief Minister of Maharashtra, as his deputy.

“Chief Minister Eknath Shinde will decide on the expansion. It is going to take place in July,” Mr. Fadnavis said. On Thursday evening, Mr. Shinde along with Mr. Fadnavis went to New Delhi to meet Union Home Minister Amit Shah and BJP national president J.P. Nadda.
