Better sense should prevail: Maha CM's wife

November 01, 2019 22:42

"Better sense should prevail" was how Amruta Fadnavis, wife of Maharashtra chief minister Devendra Fadnavis, replied when asked about the delay in government formation in the state on Friday.

Allies, the Bharatiya Janata Party and the Shiv Sena, are locked in a tussle over the chief minister's post since results of the assembly elections were declared on October 24.

"Better sense should prevail upon all politicians," Amruta, who works with Axis Bank in a senior position, said, speaking to reporters at an event in Mumbai.

"Government should be formed at the earliest. Politicians should take a balanced decision keeping in mind where they stand to form a stable government," she said, when asked about the present deadlock. -- PTI
