323: Uddhav Thackeray Takes Oath as Maharashtra CM: What to Expect Next? - a podcast by The Quint

History was made as the first from the Thackeray clan – a family that has unmatchable political clout in the state for more than five decades now – got its first chief minister.

Uddhav Thackeray was sworn in as the Maharashtra CM, on 28 November, at Shivaji Park in Dadar, which is the traditional venue for Shiv Sena events.

He had vowed to make a Shiv Sainik as Maharashtra's Chief Minister but now that he is at the helm, what is expected from his governance?

One person that we don't have any clarity from, however, is NCP leader Ajit Pawar who played a significant role in the political action that preceded this swearing in ceremony. Where does he stand in the alliance?

Although 28 November was Uddhav Thackeray's day, the whole story in incomplete without Sharad Pawar, the NCP supremo without whom this alliance wouldn't be possible. Is he bringing a new chapter in Shiv Sena's politics in Maharashtra? How does the way forward look? For all this tune in to The Big Story podcast!
