This ceremony showed the enthusiasm within the people of Maharashtra and BJP workers, says senior leader, Om Mathur. He adds that the Shiv Sena was the party's natural ally, we want them to come along, it's up to them now.

Shiv Sena Chief Uddhav Thackeray today agreed to attend the swearing-in ceremony of Devendra Fadnavis as Maharashtra Chief Minister after a last-minute call from BJP President Amit Shah inviting him to the event.

Reaching out to a sulking Shiv Sena, Shah's call to Uddhav came a day after the Sena announced its boycott of the grand swearing-in ceremony of Fadnavis on grounds of its "constant humiliation" by BJP over government formation in Maharashtra.
