Congrats, CM Ashok Chavan

Not Available

It was the replay of the developments for Ashok Chavan. First of all, I would like to congratulate him for the success to his party as well as his becoming chief minister again. Chavan was chosen on Saturday night to head the Congress Legislature Party in Maharashtra. He will be the chief minister for the second time, nine months after taking over the affairs of the state.

Chavan, who was selected as the CLP leader by Congress president Sonia Gandhi, owes his selection to his non-controversial brief tenure as the chief minister of the state. To his credit, it must be said that during his brief tenure as CM, there was no major controversy affecting the reputation of the Congress party. He was elected to the post following resignation of Vilasrao Deshmukh in the wake of Mumbai terror attack in November last year. Since then, he has steered clear of any shortcomings. He had some big rivals in the form of Narayan Rane and Vilasrao Deshmukh, but ultimately his close relations with Gandhi family prevailed. He deserved to be rewarded and indeed was rewarded.

Like I mentioned in my post immediately after he became CM for first time, Chavan also hails from Nanded like me. I have observed he initiated so many projects and works in Nanded, that if they are truly realized, the city could soon surpass Aurangabad.
