Time for Chavan to shift gears, say netas

MUMBAI: Chief minister Prithviraj Chavan has managed to retain his clean image but his decisions are yet to translate into electoral gains for the Congress, feel observers . Political analyst B Venkatesh Kumar attributes this to the party's failure to project decisions taken by the state effectively to the citizens.

"The Congress rank and file is yet to align itself with the CM," he said. Chavan, incidentally , completes two years in office on Sunday.

A senior Congress leader acknowledged this lacuna. Citing the party's performance in the recent civic and gram panchayat elections, he said, "The CM's clean image and efficient functioning has not translated into major political gains for the party."

As it is evident that the Congress leadership has no plans to replace Chavan, an exercise to build the right support team around him will now be undertaken. "There are far too many divisions in the state Congress unit at the moment. With assembly elections barely a year and a half away, it is time to set things right," Kumar said.

Chavan's performance as CM so far has been a mixed bag for some. "While he has seemingly provided a clean administration in Maharashtra and has been able to fast-track central clearances for some bigticket projects, he has adopted an overcautious stand and has not come across as someone who takes fast decisions," Kumar said.

BJP's Vinod Tawde, leader of opposition in the legislative council, echoed this sentiment . "One must acknowledge that there has been no major scam in his term so far. While he has been meticulous while clearing files, it's time he improved his speed. Many citizen-centric decisions have been pending for some time." He added that Chavan's meticulous approach has kept the NCP in check.

Senior Congressman UIhas Pawar said that Chavan's clean image and efficiency in administration have led to an increase in confidence among the masses. Chavan will use the impending reshuffle in the state cabinet and the party units in the state and Mumbai to build his own team, sources said. Kumar said the time is ripe for Chavan to shift gears.
