BJP leader Devendra Fadnavis has said that because of people's love, he did not feel that he had ceased to be the chief minister of Maharashtra. He was speaking at a public event in Navi Mumbai.

"People never made me feel that I am not the chief minister. I still feel that I am chief minister as I have been roaming in the state over the last two years. The love and affection of people has not receded," said Fadnavis. A person's work is more important than his or her position, he added.
