Now Shinde cabinet will be expanded
According to reports from inside, Maharashtra BJP President Chandrakant Patil is also going to be a part of Shinde cabinet. In fact, after opening the front against Mahavikas Aghadi alliance and former CM Uddhav Thackeray, Shiv Sena’s rebel leader Eknath Shinde changed power in Maharashtra by taking party MLAs along with him in alliance with BJP. In such a situation, now about a month after taking oath as CM, now the Shinde government of Maharashtra is going to expand its cabinet.

Opposition targets Shinde government
On June 30, Eknath Shinde took oath as the Chief Minister, while Devendra Fadnavis took over as the Deputy CM. In such a situation, both the ministers are working as a two-member cabinet. Many opposition parties, including Leader of the Opposition Ajit Pawar, are constantly attacking the government for not expanding the cabinet. NCP leader Ajit Pawar had said on Saturday that the Eknath Shinde-Devendra Fadnavis government cannot expand the cabinet unless it gets the green signal from Delhi.
While talking to the media on Sunday, Fadnavis said that Ajit Pawar is the leader of the opposition. They have to say such things. Ajit Dada easily forgets that when he was in government, there were only five ministers in the first 32 days.
