In a surprising turn of events, reliable political sources are suggesting that Murlidhar Mohol, an MP from Pune, could emerge as the consensus candidate for Chief Minister of Maharashtra. While Mohol may not be widely known outside political circles, this surprising development is attracting considerable attention in political circles.

Murlidhar Mohol, a Maratha, has strong roots in the RSS. An active member of the organisation, Mohol is also a member of the BJP. He previously served as the Mayor of Pune and is currently the Minister of State for Civil Aviation and the Cooperation Ministry in the Modi government.

While Devendra Fadnavis’ name is being discussed, names like Vinod Tawde and Radhakrishna Vikhe-Patil are also being considered. However, it is being speculated that this time, a leader with strong roots in the original BJP and RSS will be considered.

This has been proven in the recent changes made in states like Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh and Gujarat, where unexpected leadership decisions were made for the broader goal of party progress.
