Eknath Shinde was sworn in as the Chief Minister of Maharashtra on 30 June 2022,^[1] on resignation of his predecessor Uddhav Thackeray. Shinde leads a government consisting of Shiv Sena, the NCP and the BJP.

Formation[edit | edit source]

After the 2019 Maharashtra elections, Shiv Sena broke its pre-poll alliance with BJP. Instead, it formed a government with NCP and Congress.^[2] Uddhav Thackeray became the Chief Minister, and Shinde was the public works and urban development minister. In June 2022, alongside several Shiv Sena legislators, Shinde withdrew from the Thackeray government.^[3] Amidst a political crisis, Thackeray resigned. A day after the resignation, Shinde was sworn in, with support from his faction of Shiv Sena, BJP, and other smaller parties.

Vote of confidence[edit | edit source]

The Legislative Assembly held a vote of confidence in the Shinde government on 4 July 2022.
