List of Chief Ministers of Maharashtra
The Chief Minister of Maharashtra is the head of the executive branch of the government of the Indian state of Maharashtra. After the Legislative Assembly elections, the Governor invites the majority party (or coalition) to form the government and appoints the Chief Minister.
If the appointee is not a member of the Legislative Assembly or Legislative Council of Maharashtra, the Constitution stipulates that they need to be elected within six months of taking the oath.
The office of the CM is concurrent with that of the concurrent assembly, provided the Chief Minister enjoys the confidence of the House and hence does not hold office for more than five years. However, it is not subject to any term limit.
Maharashtra was formed on 1 May 1960 by disintegrating Bombay State and Hyderabad State. Yashwantrao Chavan, who had served as the third CM of Bombay State since 1956, became the first CM of Maharashtra. He belonged to the Indian National Congress and held the position until the 1962 assembly elections.
Marotrao Kannamwar succeeded him and was the only Chief Minister to die while in office. Vasantrao Naik, who held the post for more than 11 years from December 1963 to February 1975, is the longest-serving CM so far.
He was the first and only CM to complete his full tenure of five years (1967–1972) until Devendra Fadnavis completed it (2014–2019). Barring Manohar Joshi (SS), Narayan Rane (SS), Devendra Fadnavis (BJP), Uddhav Thackeray (SS), and Eknath Shinde (SS), all other CMs have been from the Congress or breakaway parties.
So far, the President’s rule has been imposed in the state three times: first from February to June 1980 and again from September to October 2014. It was reinstated on 12 November 2019.
The current office bearer from 30 June 2022 is Eknath Shinde of Shiv Sena.
