Maharashtra BJP in-charge C T Ravi said Shiv Sena betrayed BJP and people of Maharashtra by joining hands with NCP and Congress to come to power
Maharashtra BJP in-charge C T Ravi today said Uddhav Thackeray is a "part-time" chief minister and dared the Shiv Sena-led Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) government to dissolve the Legislative Assembly and hold fresh polls, which he said would prove BJP's strength.
Speaking at the BJP state executive meeting here, Mr Ravi said Shiv Sena had betrayed BJP and the people of Maharashtra by joining hands with NCP and Congress to come to power.
The Shiv Sena fell out with BJP after the 2019 Maharashtra assembly elections, accusing the latter of not honouring the promise of sharing the post of Chief Minister with the Uddhav Thackeray-led party. The Sena then joined hands with the NCP and Congress to form a government in November 2019.
"Uddhav Thackeray is a part-time chief minister of Maharashtra. The state needs a full-time CM like Devendra Fadnavis. By joining hands with the NCP and Congress, the Shiv Sena has not only betrayed the BJP but also the people of this state," Mr Ravi said while addressing the BJP meeting, which is being held ahead of elections to the Mumbai civic body and other municipal corporations next year.
