Mumbai, Dec 30: Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) chief Sharad Pawar on Thursday said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi had offered him a proposal that the BJP and NCP should come together to form the government in Maharashtra. Pawar added that he rejected PM Modi’s proposal saying that the ‘ideoglogy of both the parties are different, so it is not possible to have an alliance with the BJP.
In an interview to a newspaper Pawar said he had received a proposal from PM Modi that Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and NCP should come together to form the government in the state, after Shiv Sena broke its alliance with the BJP.
Pawar further said that, PM told him to ‘think over it and tell me in future’. Reacting on the statement, Shiv Sena spokesperson Sanjay Raut said “When Pawar is saying then this must be true”.
He further said that this time the BJP was desperate to form the government in Maharashtra and therefore it was resorting to such tactics, he added.
