The CM designate Shinde and Fadnavis have staked a claim to form the Government with the Governor at Rajbhavan. Governor Koshiyar will administer the oath of secrecy today at Rajbhavan in a low-profile manner and then the cabinet expansion will take place.
The CM and Deputy CM will take the oath of secrecy with the Governor at Rajbhavan at 7 PM. A detailed cabinet swearing-in will take place next week after the executive meeting in Hyderabad gets completed.This was agreed upon by both parties. Shinde has already met Fadnavis and the Governor.
Fadnavis will stake a claim in writing showing that he has the support of 170 MLAs. There is also a chance that the Ministers might take the oath on Friday at Rajbhavan.
It has to be approved by PM Modi, BJP Chief Nadda apart from HM Amit Shah. There is a chance that Eknath Shinde will be elected as the LP leader this evening.
They want to claim that Shiv Sena belongs to the Shinde group. There is every scope that they will accommodate the leftover MLAs from the Uddhav group also.
Shinde is also claiming the election symbol also as he has the majority of MLAs with him.
