Can We Contest Future Elections With Shiv Sena As Ally, Asks Congress’ Sanjay Nirupam
Mumbai: Amid the ongoing tussle between BJP-Shiv Sena over government formation, after Bhartiya Janata Part denied to form its govt, Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) and Shiv Sena hinted at a possible alliance to form government in Maharashtra, Congress leader Sanjay Nirupam said on Monday that political instability in the state cannot be ruled out.
“No matter who forms govt and how? But the political instability in Maharashtra cannot be ruled out now. Get ready for early elections. It may take place in 2020. Can we go to the elections with Shiv Sena as a partner?” he tweeted.

Nirupam had on Saturday warned Congress-NCP of a tie-up with Shiv Sena terming it as a disastrous move.
Earlier today, Shiv Sena MP Arvind Sawant announced that he would resign from his position in the Union Cabinet.
The pre-poll NDA alliance ‘Mayawati’ got an absolute majority in Maharashtra, when the BJP won 105 and the Shiv Sena secured 56 seats in the 288-member Maharashtra Assembly.
On the other hand, NCP and Congress have 54 and 44 seats in the assembly.
