Shah calls Sena's 50:50 formula a 'new demand'

November 13, 2019 18:59

Bharatiya Janata Party president Amit Shah speaks on collapse of alliance with Shiv Sena.

"Before elections the prime minister and I said many times in public that if our alliance wins then Devendra Fadnavis will be the chief minister, no one objected back then.

"Now they have come up with new demands which are not acceptable to us," Shah said.

He also said that before this, in no state was so much time given by the Governor to political parties to stake claim to form a government.

"18 days were given. Governor invited parties only after assembly tenure ended. Neither Shiv Sena nor Congress-Nationalist Congress Party staked claim and neither did we.

"Even if today any party has numbers it can approach the Governor," Shah said. -- ANI
