The validation of this work was already received in the last assembly elections,&#8221; he added.<\/p>\n<p id=\"3\" class=\"story_para_3\">The ads in question featured Fadnavis paying tribute to Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj and Lord Ganesh on the occasion of Anant Chaturdashi, the final day of the 10-day Ganesh festival. Both ads included the word \u201cDevabhau&#8221; (a popular reference to Fadnavis in Marathi), but it remains unclear who paid for them.<\/p>\n<p id=\"4\" class=\"story_para_4\">When asked if the advertisements were a political move to position Fadnavis as the face of the Maratha reservation push, Shinde replied that he and the CM had already entered their \u201csecond innings as a team&#8221; and would continue to focus on the development of the state and the welfare of the poor.<\/p>\n<p id=\"5\" class=\"story_para_5\">\u201cNow Devendraji and I have started our second innings as a team. Going forward, our agenda remains the same \u2013 development of the state and helping the poor and needy,&#8221; Shinde noted.<\/p>\n<p id=\"6\" class=\"story_para_6\">The remarks come just days after Maratha activist Manoj Jarange staged a five-day hunger strike in Mumbai, demanding reservation for the Maratha community. The protest ended on September 2 after the state government accepted most of his demands.<\/p>\n<p id=\"7\" class=\"story_para_7\">Following the breakthrough, CM Fadnavis said the government had found a \u201csolution&#8221; in the community\u2019s interest.<\/p>\n<p id=\"8\" class=\"story_para_8\">The ruling Mahayuti alliance in Maharashtra comprises of the BJP, Shinde-led Shiv Sena, and Ajit Pawar\u2019s NCP.<\/p>\n<p id=\"9\" class=\"story_para_9\"><em>(With inputs from PTI)<\/em><\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atawrap\">\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atadetailwrp\">\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd ataname\"><span class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atthumb\"><\/p>\n<figure class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"authorimg\" src=\"data:image\/jpeg;base64,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\" class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd\"\/><\/figure>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd attitle\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/byline\/news-desk-17918.html\" class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atamail\">News Desk<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The News Desk is a team of passionate editors and writers who break and analyse the most important events unfolding in India and abroad.
