MUMBAI: The ruling Shiv Sena and the NCP on Tuesday dominated out any risk to the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) authorities saying it would full the 5-yr time period, quickly after a one-on-one assembly between Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray and Prime Minister Narendra Modi in Delhi triggered a flutter in political circles.
Senior BJP chief Devendra Fadnavis mentioned nothing was shocking if Thackeray, as a CM, met the prime minister individually.
Shiv Sena MP Sanjay Raut and Maharashtra NCP president Jayant Patil individually mentioned the MVA authorities, comprising the Sena, NCP and Congress, will full its 5-yr tenure.
Patil mentioned there was nothing to be “afraid” a couple of separate assembly between Thackeray and the PM, as political leaders, together with Sharad Pawar, preserve such cordial relations slicing throughout the social gathering strains.
Speaking to reporters, Fadnavis mentioned politics usually begins few months earlier than the elections and one can not cease it, “while on other days, coordination between the state and the Centre helps the state”.
Admitting that he met the PM individually, Thackeray mentioned there was nothing improper in having such interplay, including sarkily that he had not gone to fulfill Pakistani chief Nawaz Sharif.
Earlier within the day, Thackeray, accompanied by Deputy Chief Minister and senior NCP chief Ajit Pawar and senior Congress chief Ashok Chavan, met the prime minister and mentioned points associated to the Maratha reservation, pending GST compensation and the proposed Metro carshed in Kanjurmarg.
“Though I am not sure whether such one-on-one meeting took place between Maharashtra chief minister Uddhav Thackeray and Prime Minister Narendra Modi, there is nothing to get surprised even if we assume that such a meeting has taken place,” Fadnavis, who’s the Leader of Opposition within the Assembly, advised reporters.
The BJP chief mentioned when he was chief minister of Maharashtra, the PM used to debate numerous points with him individually.
“When I used to meet the prime minister with a delegation, he used to talk with them for 5 to 10 minutes. The PM later used to discuss issues concerning the state with me separately for 15-20 minutes,” he mentioned.
The Shiv Sena-BJP alliance crumbled in 2019 over the difficulty of chief ministership. Sena, which was one of the oldest allies of the BJP, later fashioned an unlikely alliance with the NCP and Congress to kind the MVA authorities in Maharashtra.
“I welcome such a meeting with the prime minister. They help in developing coordination between the Centre and the state. We have always maintained that the state should maintain good relations with Prime Minister Narendra Modi,” Fadnavis mentioned.
Queried concerning the probabilities of Thackeray and the PM setting apart their political variations, Fadnavis mentioned, “Politics generally starts few months before the elections and one cannot stop it. On other days, coordination between the state and the Centre helps the state. If a proper role is played at right time, Maharashtra will benefit for sure”.
Raut advised reporters that PM Narendra Modi has listened to CM Uddhav Thackeray, deputy CM Ajit Pawar and Congress chief Ashok Chavan about numerous points regarding the state.
“There will be some definitive decision in coming days,” he mentioned when requested concerning the assembly between the Thackeray-led delegation and the PM.
Jayant Patil echoed Raut.
“Our commitment is to serve for five years and we will complete that tenure. There is nothing to be afraid of about a separate meeting that took place between chief minister Uddhav Thackeray and Prime Minister Narendra Modi. There is no threat to the Maha Vikas Aghadi government in Maharashtra,” Patil, who heads the Water Resources Department, mentioned.
He mentioned a cordial relationship between the chief minister and the prime minister is nice for Maharashtra.
“Though our political stands are different, we maintain a cordial relationship with leaders of other political parties. NCP chief Sharad Pawar maintains such relations. Sometimes controversies happen. There is nothing new about it,” he mentioned.
Patil mentioned he criticises many BJP leaders and insurance policies of the saffron social gathering, “but on the personal level, we are cordial with each other”.
