Behind the screen political drama in Maha's tale - Here's what happened?

The political crisis of Maharashtra camps off from the month-long uncertainty and muddle developments after the heated grounds of the state prepare to host the swearing-in ceremony of Uddhav Thackeray, who will be taking oath as the Chief Minister for the first time with the support of former rivals Congress and Nationalist Congress Party, by ousting the BJP from the rule of India's richest state that had shocked the duo of Modi and Amit Shah.

We have been able to get into the circle of the quaking developments in the state through our on-ground sources which had revealed the appalling behind the screen political drama on how the Pawars had dominated the power politics by overruling the strategies of Amit Shah, the current Chanakya of Indian politics where the tri-party alliance had destroyed the attempts of horse-trading by BJP. The political drama was directed by the BJP-Sena alliance to share the Chief Ministerial post and after having no party crossed the majority mark, the Governor has implemented the Presidential rule in the state after Modi led Union Cabinet consented for implementation and our sources had indicated that with the view of barricading Shiv Sena from assuming the office of the Chief Minister, the BJP party has imposed the presidential rule in the state after which Shiv Sena fiercely accused the governor of the unconstitutional decision.

The sources had said that the BJP has been destroying the hope and promise made by Uddhav Thackeray to his father and party's founder Bal Thackeray as Shiv Sena would come to power by holding the post of Chief Minister. To keep up the promise, Uddhav Thackeray accused the BJP and assented to sail on the opposite ship with the sole motive of becoming the Chief Minister that will fulfill his promise.

With the view of that, Uddhav Thackeray had tabled multiple rounds of negotiations with the party's senior leaders and legal advisers who pictured the fact that the opposition parties have the least possibilities to stake a claim to form a new government while the state is under the Presidential rule. They asserted the Shiv Sena leader to paddle with Sharad Pawar and to explore the ways to break the presidential rule that has tied and locked the state and the hope of the opposition parties where Modi holds the key. After the discussions, Uddhav Thackeray met with Sharad Pawar where during their discussions, Uddhav claimed that Sharad Pawar's NCP holds the capability to quake the hope of BJP and he further notified that by allying with Shiv Sena, NCP will attain massive growth in Maharashtra and in India as well.

Uddhav Thackeray and Sharad Pawar had tuned the behind the screen twists while BJP was under the spotlight before the cameras.  As per the negotiations, Sharad Pawar met with Prime Minister Modi during the turmoil where Pawar has said to web NCP's leader and his nephew Ajit Pawar's support to form BJP government after which the BJP had presented the early morning twist on last Saturday where the presidential rule was revoked and Devendra Fadnavis assumed the office as Chief Minister while Ajit Pawar took oath as Deputy Chief Minister and following the assumption of office, the cases that were filed against Ajit Pawar eventually got dismissed.

As part of behind the screen drama, Sharad Pawar strongly denied the support of the Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) to BJP and claimed that the support shown by Ajit Pawar was his own decision and not officially from the party. This announcement, that came hours after Fadnavis and Ajit Pawar assumed their offices, had kept the heat alive in the state. While BJP hoped to captain the ship with the support of Ajit Pawar, Sharad Pawar, on the other side of the aisle, had proclaimed that the tri-party coalition of Congress, NCP, and Shiv Sena will form a government.

After Supreme court pronounced the verdict of conducting a trust vote in the assembly, Ajit Pawar shockingly resigned from his office by citing that no MLAs are with him to support and hours later, Devendra Fadnavis resigned and submitted his resignation to the Governor that had collapsed the strategy of BJP by making Devendra Fadnavis as the third shortest served Chief Minister in independent India. While addressing the reporters, Fadnavis said that the BJP had decided to form the government with the assurance from Ajit Pawar, who has been one of the senior leaders of NCP, who served as MLA for five times and a nephew of Sharad Pawar.

By nodding his consent, the governor will be administering the oath of office for Uddhav Thackeray on Thursday, November 28th, 2019 and he has been awarded about a week to prove his majority in the assembly.

Uddhav Thackeray has extended his gratitude to Sonia Gandhi on her support despite Shiv Sena opposed and criticized the Congress party for the past three decades. He claimed that he will meet Prime Minister Narendra Modi as Maharashtra's Chief Minister. On the other hand, the centric political ideologues had revealed that the BJP leaders would somehow attempt to apply Karnataka's formula in the state to indulge in horse-trading of MLAs through which they will collapse the assembly.
