NCP leader Ajit Pawar was sworn in as deputy chief minister of Maharashtra on Monday during the expansion of the Uddhav Thackeray-led council of ministers. Earlier, Pawar took oath as deputy CM on November 23 after he rebelled against the NCP and joined hands with the BJP. However, he resigned on November 26, leading to the collapse of the three-day Devendra Fadnavis government. Shiv Sena chief Uddhav Thackeray's son Aaditya Thackeray was also sworn-in as minister on Monday. Governor BS Koshyari administered the oath of office and secrecy to the new ministers in the Vidhan Bhavan (state legislature) complex.
