Is the gentleman in the suit standing behind Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh Sarsanghchalak Mohan Bhagwat who we think it is?

At the inauguration of a new cancer facility in Nagpur, the city's second most important BJP leader -- one Devendra Fadanvis, deputy chief minister of the great state of Maharashtra -- isn't in this photograph while the leading BJP personality from the area -- Nitin Gadkari, widely perceived to be the top performing minister in the Modi Cabinet -- is present with state Chief Minister Eknath Shinde (partly seen behind Bhagwat).

But Fadnavis was very much there as the photographs below reveal -- actually, where Shinde is, Fadnavis must be around somewhere.

Other states -- Uttar Pradesh, for instance -- have deputy chief ministers, but they don't operate as a constant double act the way Shinde-Fadnavis do as CM and DyCM.
