Ajit Pawar Deputy Chief Minister In Cabinet Expansion Today: Sources | Read

Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) leader Ajit Pawar will make a dramatic return as Deputy Chief Minister of Maharashtra today, sources have said, adding that today will also see an expansion of the state cabinet that currently has only six members in addition to Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray. Mr Pawar's likely return comes a little over a month after he broke ranks to ally with the BJP, was sworn-in as Devendra Fadnavis's deputy in a surprise early-morning ceremony and then quit hours before a Supreme Court-ordered floor test, consigning to the bin the BJP's 80-hour-long bid to seize power.
