Uddhav Sena to Congress: Learn from Haryana defeat, name CM face
Fadnavis says Maharashtra will give Rahul second 'guard of honour'
Sanjay Raut, MP, Shiv Sena (UBT) told The Indian Express. ''Our party chief Uddhav Thackeray has also raised the same demand today," he added. With Congress suffering an unexpected defeat in Haryana today, its alliance partner in Maharashtra, the Shiv Sena, led by Uddhav Thackeray, today, sounded caution to Maha Vikas Aghadi while pressing its demand for appointing a chief ministerial candidate.
”There is a strong lesson to be learnt from the defeat of Congress in Haryana… The MVA and Congress should take a cue from it and declare a CM face,” Sanjay Raut, MP, Shiv Sena (UBT) told The Indian Express. ”Our party chief Uddhav Thackeray has also raised the same demand today,” he added.
The Sena has, for the past two months, been insisting that MVA announce a CM face. And even though it wants Uddhav to be the MVA CM face, the Sena is not openly saying so, and is promising support to any candidate declared as CM candidate. Sena’s alliance partners— Congress and NCP (SP) —have paid no heed to the demand. In fact, senior Congress leader Prithviraj Chavan said there was no tradition in Maharashtra of appointing a CM face.
