Raj Thackeray agreed: Fadnavis on floor test

June 29, 2022 16:07

BJP leader Devendra Fadnavis speaks with MNS chief Raj Thackeray over the phone, asking for help in the Floor Test scheduled for tomorrow. "Thackeray agreed," Fadnavis said, "that the party will vote". MNS has one MLA in the Maharashtra Assembly.

Maharashtra BJP leader Sudhir Mungantiwar on Wednesday met state legislature secretariat's principal secretary Rajendra Bhagwat and urged him to ensure protection to the rebel Shiv Sena MLAs, who are scheduled to arrive in the state for floor test on June 30.

Majority of the legislators of the Shiv Sena, which heads the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) government, have been camping in Guwahati along with some independents since June 22.

The Sena rebels are demanding that the party snap ties with the NCP and Congress, allies in the government, accusing these parties of trying to eliminate their party. Maharashtra Governor B S Koshyari has directed the Uddhav Thackeray-led government to face the floor test at 11 am on Thursday.
