Even after 5 days of the electoral verdict, suspense over govt formation lingers in Maharashtra.. Monday's statements by Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis among other leaders confounded the confusion further instead of resolving it.. While the Shiv Sena is insisting on the 50-50 formula, Fadnavis said it unequivocally that he will become Chief Minister again for the next 5 years.. Fadnavis also expressed resentment over editorials in the Sena mouthpiece 'Saamna' which often take potshots at the BJP..
The day also saw BJP's Rajya Sabha MP Sanjay Kakade claimed that 45 of the Sena's 56 newly elected MLAs are keen to join hands with the BJP to form the govt..
Meanwhile, BJP appointed Union minister Narendra Singh Tomar and party vice president Avinash Rai Khanna as central observers for the meeting of its newly elected BJP Legislative party scheduled for today.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi has already announced Fadnavis's name for a return to the CM's post, that makes the legislative party meet a mere formality.
