Devendra Fadnavis was sworn in as the chief minister of Maharashtra for the second time on 23 November 2019.[1][2] Alongside Fadnavis, Ajit Pawar was sworn in as the deputy chief minister.[3][4][5] Before a Supreme Court-ordered no confidence motion could take place, Pawar resigned on 26 November.[6] Fadnavis resigned shortly thereafter,[7] making his second ministry the shortest Maharashtra ministry, surpassing P. K. Sawant's 1963 interim government, that had lasted for nine days.
