Maharashtra Assembly Elections 2024 | Chief Ministers who completed a full term

The Maharashtra assembly polls will take place in a single phase on November 20, and the results will be declared on November 23.

Maharashtra is a state where local parties have a strong sway, and as such, loyalties shift quickly and governments rise and fall all the time. Rarely do Chief Ministers complete their terms.

Let us take a look at the chief ministers who completed full-terms.

Devendra Fadnavis

Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis.

Currently, Maharashtra's Deputy Chief Minister, BJP leader Devendra Fadnavis served his full term as the chief minister from October 31, 2014, till November 12, 2019, i.e. 5 years and 12 days.

Vasantrao Naik

Congress' Vasantrao Naik served two full terms as Maharashtra's chief minister once from December 5, 1963, till March 1, 1967, and again from March 13, 1972, till - February 21, 1975.

Assembly Elections 2024 | The Maharashtra Assembly polls will take place against the backdrop of a fractured political landscape in the western state where the Shiv Sena and NCP will be going up against the Uddhav Thackeray and Sharad Pawar factions, even as the BJP and Congress try to make their mark. Meanwhile, in Jharkhand, the JMM faces a new challenge after Hemant Soren's recent arrest and Champai, a longstanding party member, joining the BJP. The Haryana election resulted in a shock loss for Congress, which was looking to galvanize on the Lok Sabha poll performance, while J&K also saw the grand old party eventually stepping away from the cabinet, with Omar Abdullah's JKNC forming government. It remains to be seen if the upcoming polls help BJP cement its position further or provide a fillip to I.N.D.I.A.
