He became the [[List of Chief Ministers of Maharashtra|Chief Minister of Maharashtra]] on 25 June 1991. His tenure was notorious for the "severe failure" to control the [[Bombay riots]]. The [[B. N. Srikrishna#The Srikrishna Commission and the Bombay Riots|Justice Srikrishna Commission]] blames the "effete political leadership" of the Congress(I) Government headed by Sudhakarrao Naik and the police force, whose "built-in bias" against Muslims "became more pronounced with murderous attacks on the constabulary and officers." The commission held that Sudhakarrao Naik "failed to act promptly and effectively and give clear-cut directives.".<ref>{{cite web | title = The Shiv Sena indicted | publisher = Frontline | url =  http://hindu.com/thehindu/fline/fl1517/15170200.htm }}</ref>
Mr Naik's tenure as Chief Minister was also noted for his attempt to destroy the clout of
the Mumbai Underworld and bring them under the aegis of the law.  He arrested the well-known gangsters [[Pappu Kalani]], [[Member of the Legislative Assembly (India)|MLA]] from [[Ulhasnagar]], and [[Bhai Thakur]] (elder brother of gangster-MLA [[Hitendra Thakur]]), and he started to destroy their money and muscle power.<ref>
