New Maha CM, deputy CM visit Chaityabhoomi to take Ambedkar's blessings | Maharashtra's newly appointed Chief Minister Ashok Chavan and Deputy Chief Chhagan Bhujbal on Sunday visited Buddhist monument, Chaityabhoomi, to take the blessings of Dr BR Ambedkar. "Today is
our first day of taking over the office and also our first cabinet meeting. So,
it was important to come here and offer prayers to Dr. B R Ambedkar and receive
his blessings. Today, we will discuss the problem of load shedding and providing
electricity to all," Bhujbal said. He added that problems of price rise, drinking
water and unemployment and development of Maharashtra will be main aim of the
new government, Bhujbal said. Congress leader Ashok Chavan and NCP leader Chhagan
Bhujbal were sworn in as Chief Minister and Deputy Chief Minister on Saturday.
Ashok Chavan along with 37 other cabinet ministers were administered the oath
of office and secrecy by Governor S C Jamir here at the Raj Bhawan, as the Congress-NCP
alliance formed government after a wait of 16 days since poll results of the State
Assembly were announced. The new Government has 18 ministers from the Congress
party and 20 from the Nationalist Congress Party (NCP). |
