The Maharashtra unit of the BJP at its core meeting had asked Shiv Sena to give away 59 seats from its quota, which it has never won in the previous Assembly elections.
Since today morning the core committee has been holding a series of meeting for discussing the seat sharing arrangement with Shiv Sena.
Member of the committee and Leader of Opposition in Maharashtra Assembly, Eknath Khadase told media persons that the alliance with Shiv Sena will remain intact but it should cede more seats to BJP.
For the sake of alliance, BJP has given away seven Lok Sabha seats to Shiv Sena over the last 25 years. In a similar manner, Shiv Sena should now reciprocate and give 59 seats to the party, “Our demand is only for those seats on, which have never been won by Shiv Sena in the last 25 years,” Khadse said.
