Brace for pivotal moves in Maharashtra's political landscape as Chief Minister Eknath Shinde and Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar set off for Delhi at 8 PM from Mumbai's gateway. The backdrop for today's final discussion on NDA's seat sharing echoes with the presence of heavyweights such as Union Home Minister Amit Shah, BJP's national helm JP Nadda, and Deputy CM Devendra Fadnavis.
Recently, Raj Thackeray's visit to Delhi for talks with Amit Shah, and BJP National Secretary Vinod Tawde sparked speculations. A prior meeting in March, attended by the significant quartet—CM Shinde, Fadnavis, Nadda, and Pawar—also focused on this crucial seat sharing affair.
Insider's expectations hint at the NCP faction led by Ajit Pawar securing 3-4 seats, with Eknath Shinde's potential for 10-12, amid possible seat swaps between BJP and Shiv Sena.
Deputy CM Devendra Fadnavis reassures that the coalition is firm in Maharashtra, with ongoing dialogues resolving the few seats still under discussion promptly—a process grounded in grassroots realities whenever parliamentary ticket distribution beckons.
