Odisha CM to Attend Maharashtra Cabinet Swearing-In

Bhubaneswar: Odisha Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi is expected to attend the swearing-in ceremony of Maharashtra’s new Council of Ministers, led by BJP leader Devendra Fadnavis, on December 5. The event will take place at Azad Maidan, Mumbai, at 5 PM.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Union Ministers, and Chief Ministers from BJP-ruled states are also set to attend the high-profile event.

Fadnavis, who will be sworn in as Maharashtra’s Chief Minister for the third time, first held the position from 2014 to 2019. He briefly returned to the role in 2019 before stepping down after 72 hours due to a lack of majority. From 2022 to 2024, he served as Deputy Chief Minister in the BJP-Shiv Sena-NCP coalition government led by Eknath Shinde.

The three-party Mahayuti alliance recently secured victory in the Maharashtra Assembly elections, retaining power in the state.
