Maharashtra CM Shinde, Dy CM Fadnavis call on President Ram Nath Kovind

Eknath Shinde and Devendra Fadnavis with President Ram Nath Kovind

New Delhi: Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde and Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis on Saturday called on President Ram Nath Kovind at Rashtrapati Bhavan.

According to the sources, Shinde and Fadnavis are likely to meet Prime Minister Narendra Modi later in the day.

On Friday, Shinde and Fadnavis met Union Home Minister Amit Shah and discussed the new government to be formed in Maharashtra and many other subjects.

Earlier in June this year, Eknath Shinde led a group of Sena MLAs against the MVA government, resulting in it losing its majority in the Maharashtra assembly. This also led Shiv Sena chief Thackeray to step down as CM ahead of a floor test.

In Maharashtra, the Chief Minister and Deputy Chief Minister of the new government have been sworn in while the rest of the ministers are to be sworn in. (with ANI inputs)
