This App displays pictures of all chief ministers of Maharashtra .

The Chief Minister of Maharashtra is the head of the Government of the Indian state of Maharashtra.

Following elections to the Legislative Assembly, the Governor invites the party (or coalition) with a majority of seats to form the government and appoints the Chief Minister (CM). If the appointee is not a member of either the Legislative Assembly or the Legislative Council of Maharashtra, then the Constitution stipulates that they need to be elected within six months of being sworn-in. The office of the CM is coterminous with the concurrent

Assembly provided the CM commands confidence in the house and hence does not exceed five years. However, it is subject to no term limits.

Maharashtra was formed by dissolution of Bombay State on 1 May 1960.Yashwantrao Chavan, who was

serving as the third CM of Bombay State since 1956, became the first CM of Maharashtra. He belonged to the Indian National Congress and held the office until the 1962 Assembly elections.
