Special session on Maratha quota after February 18th
Monday, 12 February 2024 The state government is likely to hold a special session of the assembly to enact legislation on the Maratha quota after Feb 18th, officials said. Sources said the one-day special session is likely to be held between the 18th and 25th. The state budget session will follow by the end of the month. The government is waiting for the report on the Maratha survey before announcing the assembly session.
Eknath Shinde has stepped down as the Chief Minister of Maharashtra following the Mahayuti alliance’s resounding victory in the assembly elections. Shinde submitted his resignation to Governor C P Radhakrishnan, who requested him to serve as a caretaker CM until a successor is appointed.
The spotlight now shifts to the selection of the next chief minister, with BJP leader Devendra Fadnavis and Shinde both emerging as contenders. The BJP, which secured 132 seats to become the single-largest party, has bolstered its claim to the top post. However, the Shiv Sena, led by Shinde, is demanding continuity in leadership, citing coalition precedents and support from the party’s MLAs and the Maratha community.
