New Delhi: Maharashtra chief minister Eknath Shinde, along with his two deputies, Devendra Fadnavis and Ajit Pawar, met with Union home minister Amit Shah in Delhi on Friday evening.
This high-level meeting between the leaders of the Mahayuti coalition in Maharashtra and BJP strategist Shah occurred as seat-sharing negotiations among the state’s ruling allies reached a critical stage.
The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), Shinde-led Shiv Sena, and Ajit Pawar-led Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) are aiming to secure power in the upcoming state assembly elections on 20 November.
It is anticipated that the three parties will finalise the seat-sharing arrangement for the election during this meeting.
Earlier on Wednesday, the BJP’s Central Election Committee convened and finalised the first list of candidates for the Maharashtra polls.
