NDTV
Devendra Fadnavis said he cannot speculate on the meeting between the PM Modi and Uddhav Thackeray, an estranged ally of the BJP, as he had no information about it.
Senior BJP leader Devendra Fadnavis on Tuesday said nothing was surprising if Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray met Prime Minister Narendra Modi separately in Delhi earlier in the day but added that he was not aware whether such interaction took place. Earlier in the day, Mr Thackeray, accompanied by Deputy Chief Minister and senior NCP leader Ajit Pawar and senior Congress leader Ashok Chavan, met the prime minister and discussed issues related to the Maratha reservation, pending GST compensation and the proposed Metro carshed in Kanjurmarg. "Though I am not sure whether such one-on-one meeting took place between Maharashtra chief minister Uddhav Thackeray and Prime Minister Narendra Modi, there is nothing to get surprised even if we assume that such a meeting has taken place," the Leader of Opposition told reporters. Mr Fadnavis said when he was chief minister of Maharashtra, the PM used to discuss various issues with him separately.More Related News
