After a prolonged political drama in Maharashtra, the state will finally get its Chief Minister today, as Uddhav Thackeray will take oath at the historic Shivaji Park in Dadar, where Bala Saheb Thackeray addressed his first rally.

The Maha Vikas Aghadi comprising the alliance of Shiv Sena-Nationalist Congress Party-Congress and other smaller parties was invited by the Governor on Tuesday to form the government after BJP’s Devendra Fadnavis resigned as the CM.
