Ending all speculations over the CM's chair in Maharashtra, BJP national president Amit Shah on Sunday endorsed Devendra Fadnavis as Maharashtra's CM candidate. He also said that the BJP and Shiv Sena would fight the October Assembly elections together.

Shah's appeal to the people for voting for the saffron alliance ended talks of the BJP and Shiv Sena parting ways again ahead of the Assembly elections. Shah was speaking at a public rally that culminated the second leg of Fadanvis's Mahajanadesh Yatra.
