Shiv Sena names Uddhav Thackeray as CM candidate

2019-03-01 0

A day after Shiv Sena tried to present ally BJP with a fait accompli by nominating Uddhav Thackeray as its chief ministerial candidate, BJP made it clear that no decision had been taken on the matter yet and indicated that the Sena could not take its claim to the CM's post for granted.

"The matter of leadership, of whether we will have a CM candidate and who it will be, has not been discussed in the BJP or with the Shiv Sena," BJP general secretary in-charge of Maharashtra Rajiv Pratap Rudy told TOI. "We will begin to work out issues like seat-sharing soon," he said.

While state BJP chief Devendra Fadnavis said he was not in the race for the CM's post, the Sena, for its part, reiterated that Uddhav would be CM. "Uddhav-ji, on his own, is not keen on being CM. But pressure is mounting on him from party seniors and Shiv Sainiks to take up the responsibility," Sena MP Sanjay Raut said.
