In a shocking remark, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MP and former Union Minister Anant Kumar Hegde said that Devendra Fadnavis was made the temporary Chief Minister of Maharashtra, so as to move funds worth Rs. 40,000 back to the Centre.
However, Fadnavis has categorically denied these claims. What are you thinking, Hegde ji?
To recall, Fadnavis joined hands with NCP rebel leader Ajit Pawar to run an 80-hour government.

Hegde made these comments, while speaking at a gathering at his parliamentary constituency Uttara Kannada in Karnataka.
He said, "You all know our man (Fadnavis) in Maharashtra became CM for 80 hours. Fadnavis then resigned, why did he do this drama? Didn't we know that we didn't have a majority? And yet he became the CM. This is the question everyone asks."

Hegde then went on to claim that the "drama" was "planned much before."
He said, "It's all central government money, and it wouldn't have been used for 'development'. This was all planned much before, and we knew that something has to be done about it."
"So Fadnavis took oath as CM. Immediately, in 15 hours, he moved all the Rs. 40,000 crore," he added.

What was the 'drama' that unfolded in Maharashtra?

To jog your memory, Fadnavis was sworn-in as the Maharashtra CM on November 23, with NCP's Ajit Pawar as his deputy.
Following this, the Sena-Congress-NCP trio moved Supreme Court against the hush-hush government formation.
Since, Fadnavis-Pawar government lacked a majority in the Assembly, both the leaders resigned within 4 days of government formation.
Subsequently, Sena-Congress-NCP's (MVA) leader Uddhav Thackeray became the CM.

Now is the time for BJP to ponder

BJP
trieddevised every trick in the book to form the government in Maharashtra. PM Modi himself gave a go-ahead to revoke President's rule at 5:47 am.Further, after Pawar was sworn-in as the Deputy CM, 9 irrigation cases (in which he was an accused, but they weren't linked to him) were closed.
So, what does BJP want - more power or people's trust? Perhaps, now is the time for them to reboot.
