MUMBAI: Amid intense discussions among Mahayuti allies over the distribution of portfolios and Eknath Shinde-led Shiv Sena’s insistence on the Home Ministry, the clarity on the composition of the council of ministers is expected by Sunday, sources said.
The expansion of the Devendra Fadnavis-led cabinet is likely to take place on December 11 or 12.
Despite Mahayuti, comprising the BJP, Shiv Sena, and NCP, securing a massive mandate in last month’s assembly elections, the new chief minister took oath after 12 days on December 5, apparently due to the internal pulls and pressure.
