BJP Appointed Chandrakant Patil Maharashtra President

Chandrakant Patil has been appointed as the new chief of the Bharatiya Janata Party’s Maharashtra unit.

Patil, a Cabinet Minister in the state government, replaces Raosaheb Danve, who resigned from the post earlier in the day.

Gold Rate

15 May 2025

Gold 24 KT 92,100/-

Gold 22 KT 85,700/-

Silver/Kg 94,800/-

Platinum 44,000/-

Recommended rate for Nagpur sarafa Making charges minimum 13% and above

The development comes months ahead of the Maharashtra assembly polls.

Danve was made a Minister of State (MoS) of Consumer Affairs in the Union Cabinet earlier in May.

According to reports, the BJP has a ‘one-person, one-post’ principle, wherein a minister cannot be state president at the same time.

While MPs and legislators can simultaneously hold organisational posts, the report states that the party rarely allows a person to hold a government and party post together.
