Mumbai: A farmer from Beed district of the state has expressed his desire to be appointed as the chief minister until the Bharatiya Janata Party and the ShivSena resolve their difference over power-sharing and government formation in Maharashtra. A resident of Vadmauli in Kej taluka, the farmer Srikant Vishnu Gadale wrote a letter to the office of Beed collector on Thursday, in which he said he wanted to be the chief minister of the state.
“The ShivSena and the BJP are yet to resolve their issue regarding the post of Chief Minister which was raised after the 2019 assembly election results. Natural calamities or unseasonal rains have hampered ready-to-harvest crops in Maharashtra. The farmers are tense over these calamities,” the letter says about.

Gadale said ” farmers are suffering, the ShivSena and the BJP are unable to resolve the issue of holding the Chief Minister’s post. Hence, until the issue is resolved, the government should hand over the responsibility of the Chief Minister’s post to me,”.
“I will solve the problems of farmers and give them justice,” said farmer. The farmer also wrote that if the administration does not take note of his letter, he would protest through “democratic means”.
The ShivSena is demanding the post of Chief Minister for 2.5 years and 50:50 division of portfolios.
Both these demands have been rejected by the BJP which has insisted that Chief Minister Devendra Fadnaviswill continue in the post for the next five years.
