Maharashtra CM meets Governor amid power sharing tussle between BJP & Shiv Sena

Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis met Maharashtra Governor Bhagat Singh Koshyari at Raj Bhavan a short while ago amid the ongoing tussle between the BJP and Shiv Sena over sharing of power in the next state government.

 

A Raj Bhawan official told that it was a courtesy call. Shiv Sena leader Diwakar Raote is also slated to meet the governor today.

 

Meanwhile, BJP enlisted the support of three independent MLA’s yesterday. Two successful BJP rebel candidates including Geeta Jain from Mira-Bhayander seat in Thane district and Rajendra Raut from Barshi seat in Solapur district along



with an independent Ravi Rana from Amravati have extended their support to BJP. 

On the other hand, two more newly elected candidates, Bachchu Kadu from Achalpur and his colleague Rajkumar Patel from Melghat, both from Amravati district in Vidarbha region, offered their support to the Shivsena, after meeting Party Chief Uddhav Thackeray.

The power-sharing scenario will become clear only after the crucial meeting between BJP President Amit Shah and Shivsena Chief Uddhav Thackeray which is scheduled to take place on 30th of October in Mumbai.
