What Chief Minister meant was some people from BJP might come to Maha Vikas Aghadi, it says
A day after Chief Minister in front of Union Minister Raosaheb Danve, Shiv Sena Rajya Sabha MP Sanjay Raut on September 18 said his party was going nowhere and some people from the BJP might come to the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA).
“We need to understand what the Chief Minister had said. He meant that some people from the BJP might come to the Maha Vikas Aghadi. We are not going anywhere. This government will complete its five-year term,” said Mr. Raut. He held a meeting with Mr. Thackeray at the latter’s official residence.
“There are many people in the State including those of the BJP. They can go anywhere — in any of the three parties of the Maha Vikas Aghadi government.”
