Political machinations during the formation of state and central governments often become interesting and unpredictable. During one such episode that happened over the short period following the announcement of election results in Maharashtra, <keyword id="6355042" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Devendra-Fadnavis">Devendra Fadnavis</keyword> resigned his post shortly after swearing in. This occurrence adds his name in the list of shortest serving Chief Ministers in India. Just three days after swearing in as the chief minister of Maharashtra for his second term, Devendra Fadnavis of the BJP resigned his office. On Tuesday, he submitted his resignation to the Governor of the state <keyword id="314718" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Bhagat-Singh-Koshyari">Bhagat Singh Koshyari</keyword> following the resignation of Ajit Pawar as the deputy CM. Just three days back, the governor had administered the oath of office for these two leaders in a hastily organized ceremony at the Raj Bhavan. The event sent political ripples all over the nation and across all the other parties in the state. Addressing a press meeting immediately after his resignation, Fadnavis remarked, “We don’t have the majority after Ajit Pawar’s resignation as Dy CM.” Devendra Fadnavis held the CM post only for 3 days By resigning his CM post in just three days, Fadnavis becomes the second CM in the state of Maharashtra to have served the shortest term. Before him, PK Sawant who swore in as the CM of Maharashtra in 1963 remained in office only for nine days. Nevertheless, there had been other CMs who remained in their office for very short terms in other states of India. BS Yedyurappa sat on the PM chair just for 3 days Last year when the government of Karnataka was being formed, BS Yedyurappa functioned as the CM only for three days. He resigned shortly after his swearing in since BJP could not show its majority during the floor test in the state assembly. Following his resignation, Yedyurappa joined the list along with Jagadambiga Pal as the shortest serving chief minister. The Supreme Court gave a day’s time for Yedyurappa to prove his majority support in the assembly. Jagdambiga Pal occupied the CM’s seat only for a day In 1988, Jagadambiga Pal served as the chief minister of Uttar Pradesh just for a day. When a floor test was called for, the state assembly witnessed an unprecedented turmoil and violence. Following that, the governor <keyword id="217358" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Romesh-Bhandari">Romesh Bhandari</keyword> recommended that the state comes under President’s rule. <keyword id="2173573" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Satish-Prasad-Singh">Satish Prasad Singh</keyword>’s tenure as the CM lasted just for a week In the year 1968, Satish Prasad Singh swore in as the Chief Minister of Bihar. When he assumed his office, he was the youngest to become the CM of the state. However, he could remain in power only for about a week due to some unexpected political turns. SC Marak remained in the CM’s office only for 13 days In Meghalaya, SC Marak, a senior Congress Leader remained on the CM’s seat only for 13 days. His tenure lasted from February 27, 1998 to March 10, 1998. Janaki Ramachandran functioned as the CM for 23 days only Janaki Ramachandran, wife of AIADMK founder and Chief MG Ramachandran functioned as the Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu only for 23 days. Her tenure stretched from January 7, 1988 to January 30, 1988.

Indian chief ministers who had the shortest stint with power

The complete list of Chief Ministers in India for 2024

Each state in India is governed by a chief minister who has been voted into power. Union territories, on the other hand, have a governor at the helm with the exception of Delhi and Puducherry, who also have serving chief ministers. A chief minister’s term lasts five years, however there are no restrictions on the number of times an official can be reelected. As such, Odisha’s Naveen Patnaik has been in office since March 2000 having served as chief minister for over 19 years. A stark gender disparity also stands out. Among the 30 heads of state, only one is a woman — Mamata Banerjee in West Bengal. Aside from the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and Congress, no longer political party has more than one chief minister in office. Here’s a short introduction to all the current ruling CMs of Indian states and UTs:

Boris Johnson told to resign following Supreme Court defeat and become the 'shortest-serving Prime Minister ever'

<ul class="summary-list"><li>On October 14 the Daily Star asked who would last longer — Liz Truss in Number 10 or a wet lettuce.</li><li>The outlet set up a livestream on Twitter to document the competition.</li></ul>On October 14, British tabloid newspaper the Daily Star asked via Twitter who would last longer — embattled UK Prime Minister Liz Truss or a head of wet lettuce, <a href="https://twitter.com/dailystar/status/1580830837331087361?s=20&amp;t=9lGmKO0L9psLGEw-H3Etfg" target="_blank" rel="noopener">setting up a livestream</a> to document the competition. Truss resigned six days later, crowning the lettuce the winner.Truss gave an impromptu speech outside Downing Street at 1:30 p.m. on October 20, saying she was stepping down as Prime Minister and there would be yet another Conservative leadership election. This followed an unpopular mini-budget in September that saw the British pound disastrously crash, the sacking of chancellor Kwasi Kwarteng, and a growing list of Conservative MP resignations that triggered rumors of a no confidence vote.The Daily Star decided to use a lettuce as its point of reference for the livestream after <a href="https://www.economist.com/leaders/2022/10/11/liz-truss-has-made-britain-a-riskier-bet-for-bond-investors" target="_blank" rel="noopener">a column</a> in the British publication The Economist described Truss as having "the shelf-life of a lettuce." The term <a href="https://twitter.com/furquan/status/1583014233771769856" target="_blank" rel="noopener">generated countless memes</a> on social media as people genuinely wondered how long Truss would survive as Prime Minister. It was also directly referenced with salad puns on current affairs shows, such as ITV's "Peston," with phrases like "tip of the iceberg" and "not a romainer."After the news of Truss' resignation broke, the livestream was updated to the (not at all decomposed) lettuce, which has googly eyes and a blonde wig similar to the Prime Minister's hair, surrounded by disco lights, a Gregg's sausage roll, and cup of tea. It was now wearing a new crown, as a remix of Kool &amp; The Gang's "celebration" played in the background. Bottles of champagne, gin, and pieces of fruit joined the livestream as the party, adorned with Union Flags, continued."Breaking: The lettuce will make a speech to the nation at 19:00," a banner across the bottom reads. Meanwhile, Liz Truss' resignation makes her the shortest serving Prime Minister in British history with a term of only 45 days in office.

6 days ago a British tabloid asked what would last longer, Prime Minister Liz Truss or a wet lettuce. The lettuce won.
