Disgruntled Congress leader Sanjay Nirupam, who kept away from the campaigning during the Maharashtra Assembly elections, on Friday cautioned his party not to support the Shiv Sena in forming the next government in the state.
Both the BJP and the Shiv Sena are locked in a bitter tussle over government formation in Maharashtra, with the Sena asking for 50-50 power sharing and rotational sharing of Chief Minister's post, but the BJP refusing to blink.
The Sena won 56 seats in the recent Assembly elections seven more than it had in the Assembly. The BJP won 105 seats, 17 less than its 2014 tally. Neither can form government on its own, but can comfortably do the same together. The magic number to form government is 145 in the 288-member Maharashtra Assembly.
