‘BJP Will Contest Polls Alone’: Devendra Fadnavis Rest All Speculations On Patch Up Possibility With Shiv Sena
Thackeray attacked the Congress after Maharashtra President Nana Patole's statement that the MVA in the state was constituted for five years and not as a permanent fixture
Mumbai: Putting to rest all speculations about a pre-poll alliance, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Devendra Fadnavis on Sunday confirmed that his party will go it alone in the next assembly elections in Maharashtra.
Taking a jibe at the alleged infighting in the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA), the former Maharashtra chief minister said it was up to the ruling alliance partners to decide with whom they would make or break ties in the next elections.

“The BJP will contest the elections on its own. It is for them (MVA) to decide with whom they will tie up, throw shoes or garland them,” Fadnavis said in reference to Thackeray’s indirect comment about the Congress that people would ‘beat them with footwear’.

“Our interest lies with the people. The BJP works for the welfare of the people,” he said.
Fadnavis’ remarks came a day after Uddhav Thackeray took an indirect dig at the Congress, saying, “Some people are talking of going it alone and contesting elections on their own. If we don’t give solutions to people’s problems, but They only talk about contesting elections. Elections. In politics, people do this, beat them with chappals.”
Thackeray attacked the Congress after Maharashtra President Nana Patole’s statement that the MVA in the state was constituted for five years and not as a permanent fixture.
Patole had indicated on June 14 that the party would contest the next assembly elections alone and not as an ally of the Maha Vikas Aghadi alliance.
Meanwhile, Patole on Saturday assured that his party supports Thackeray with all its might till the government completes its full five-year term.
