BJP accuses Congress of destablising its government in Maharashtra
The BJP has slammed the Congress for allegedly spreading rumours about an alliance deal between the Congress and the Shiv Sena in Maharashtra.
Mumbai, Feb 25: The Bharatiya Janata Party on Saturday accused its rival, the Congress, of destablising its government in Maharashtra. Speaking to ANI, union minister Nitin Gadkari rubbished reports of the Congress and the Shiv Sena joining hands to rule over the Mumbai municipal corporation--the country's richest civic body.
The elections of local body polls across Maharashtra took place recently. Both the BJP and the Sena have emerged as winners with maximum seats. Currently, both the BJP and the Sena are in an alliance and ruling the state.
"The Congress just wants to destabilise Maharashtra government, that is why some of its leaders talking of supporting the Shiv Sena," said Gadkari.

A report published by The Indian Express indicated that the Sena on Friday started back-channel talks with the Congress to explore an attempt to checkmate the BJP in the race for control over the Mumbai municipal corporation.
In fact, Gadkari hinted that the BJP and the Sena might come together to rule Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation. "Both the Sena and the BJP don't need numbers, so I feel they should work together. However, the final decision will be taken by leaders of both the parties and Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis," Gadkari added.
The recently declared local body poll results had thrown up a hung verdict. The Sena won 84 seats in the 227-member corporation while the BJP was a close second with 82.
Earlier, Sena had decided to fight local body polls across the state minus the BJP as its partner. So, for some time now, rumours are rife that the Sena will end its alliance with the BJP in the state assembly too.
