Shiv Sena spokesperson Sanjay Shirsat has warned that if NCP leader Ajit Pawar joins BJP with a group of party leaders, then the Eknath Shinde-led Shiv Sena will not be part of the government in Maharashtra.
Talking to reporters in Mumbai on Tuesday, Mr Shirsat, whose party shares power with the Bharatiya Janata Party in Maharashtra, said he thinks the Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) will not go with the BJP directly.
"Our policy is clear about it. The NCP is a party which betrays. We will not be with the NCP even in power. If the BJP takes NCP with them, Maharashtra will not like it. We decided to move out (of the earlier undivided Shiv Sena led by Uddhav Thackeray) because people didn't like us going with the Congress and NCP," he said.
Mr Shirsat said Ajit Pawar has not said anything which means he doesn't want to be in the NCP.
