Political journey of Eknath Shinde: From rebel to action man to 'Ladka Bhau'

From a Shiv Sena rebel in 2022, veteran politician Eknath Sambhaji Shinde went on to acquire the image of a doer and man of actions as chief minister in a short span of two-and-a-half years when he headed the Mahayuti government in Maharashtra.

Shinde taking oath as a deputy CM on Thursday in the new government headed by BJP leader Devendra Fadnavis may be seen a "demotion" by his ardent supporters, but the former auto-rickshaw driver can claim to be the true heir to the Shiv Sena legacy after the stunning performance of his party in the November Assembly polls.

The 60-year-old former CM, elected MLA from Kopri-Pachpakhadi in Thane district, led the Shiv Sena to spectacular victory in the polls as it won 57 of the 81 seats it contested, reducing the rival Shiv Sena (UBT) led by his predecessor Uddhav Thackeray to just 20 Assembly segments.
