Eknath Shinde Government Wins Floor Test In Maharashtra Assembly
Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde (Facebook)
Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde on Monday won the floor test in the State Assembly.
In the 288-member House, 164 MLAs voted for the motion of confidence, while 99 voted against it.
After the death of a Shiv Sena MLA recently, the current strength of the Assembly is reduced to 287, thus the majority mark is 144.
Shinde was sworn in as CM on June 30, a day after Uddhav Thackeray quit the post. BJP’s Devendra Fadnavis was sworn in as the deputy CM.
Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
