Meanwhile, the politics of turmoil has started again in Maharashtra. bjp President Chandrashekhar Bawankule claims that many leaders of the opposition alliance are wishing to join the BJP. However, congress Chief Nana Patole has denied such claims.
maharashtra bjp President Chandrashekhar Bawankule and his colleague praveen Darekar on wednesday claimed that many MPs and MLAs of the maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) have contacted them and expressed their displeasure with their respective parties. The congress rejected these claims of bjp leaders and state president Nana Patole termed them 'absurd'. Chandrashekhar Bawankule said, "MVA leaders themselves are expressing their uneasiness and many are in touch with bjp to switch sides."
MVA got only 46 seats
In the recently concluded assembly elections, the MVA of congress, shiv sena (UBT) and ncp (SP) performed very poorly and won only 46 out of 288 seats. In contrast, the bjp, shiv sena and ncp alliance Mahayuti won 230 seats. The election results have fueled speculation about MVA MLAs joining the ruling coalition.
'Bawankule's claim is not worth answering'
maharashtra bjp President Bawankule said, "There has been no organized effort to persuade MVA leaders to change the party. bjp is ready to welcome those who wish to join their vision for a developed country." Meanwhile, Nana Patole said that Bawankule's claim is not worth answering. The maharashtra congress Chief said, "All congress MPs of maharashtra are with the party. We will show the real position of the Mahayuti in the upcoming winter session of the maharashtra Legislature in Nagpur."
