Shankarrao Chavan to Fadnavis, Maharashtra CMs who had to give up post & settle for a downgrade
- There have been many tall leaders who have first served as CM and then taken up relatively junior positions in the government to accommodate political compulsions from time to time.
The article from MSN discusses the political careers of several former Chief Ministers of Maharashtra who either had to resign or accept a demotion due to various political circumstances. It highlights Shankarrao Chavan, who resigned in 1988 following the Bofors scandal, and later served as Union Home Minister. Manohar Joshi was replaced by Vilasrao Deshmukh in 1999 after a poor performance in the Lok Sabha elections. Deshmukh himself resigned in 2003 after the Mumbai floods, and again in 2004 after the Telgi stamp paper scam. Sushilkumar Shinde stepped down in 2006 to make way for Deshmukh's return, and Ashok Chavan resigned in 2010 due to the Adarsh Housing Society scam. Prithviraj Chavan was replaced in 2014 after BJP's rise to power, and Devendra Fadnavis, after serving as CM, had to settle for a lesser role in the government following the 2019 elections due to political alliances and power-sharing agreements. The narrative underscores the volatile nature of political leadership in Maharashtra, where leaders often face the challenge of maintaining their positions amidst scandals, electoral outcomes, and coalition politics.
