He, along with his deputies Eknath Shinde and Ajit Pawar, assumed their new roles at the state secretariat, Mantralaya, after a grand ceremony at Azad Maidan. The event was attended by prominent figures including Prime Minister Narendra Modi, several state chief ministers, Union ministers, industry leaders, and film stars.<\/p>\n<p>Upon their arrival at Mantralaya, the leaders received a traditional welcome from the staff. Fadnavis, Shinde, and Pawar paid their respects by offering floral tributes to the portraits of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, Jijabai, B R Ambedkar, and Mahatma Phule. Chief Secretary Sujata Saunik was also present for the occasion.<\/p>\n<p>Following the formalities, the new leadership held their first cabinet meeting, engaging with senior officials to discuss key matters. Fadnavis&#8217; return to power marks another milestone in Maharashtra&#8217;s political landscape, with the state witnessing multiple leadership changes over the years.
