I doubt 3-wheeler govt will be stable: Fadnavis

November 26, 2019 16:10

Devendra Fadnavis on Tuesday announced his resignation as Maharashtra's chief minister, hours after the Supreme Court ordered a floor test in the state assembly.

"I doubt that this three-wheeler govt will be stable but BJP will work as an effective opposition and try to raise the voice of people. We had decided that we will never indulge in horse trading, that we will never try to break away any MLA. Those who said that we indulge in horse trading bought the entire horse stable."

Earlier in the day, his deputy, NCP's Ajit Pawar resigned from the post, just three days after he was sworn in."We realised that we don't have the required numbers to form the government and we don't want to indulge in horse-trading," Fadnavis told reporters after announcing his decision.

In a sudden turn of event, both Fadnavis and Pawar were administered the oath on Saturday morning, nixing Shiv Sena, Congress and NCP's bid to form government in the state.
