Sharing seats in Maharashtra bigger exercise than India-Pak partition: Raut

Shiv Sena leader Sanjay Raut on Tuesday said that sharing of 288 seats amongst the coalition members of National Democratic Alliance (NDA) in Maharashtra is a bigger exercise than India-Pakistan partition. "Maharashtra is a big state. The sharing of 288 seats is a bigger exercise than India-Pakistan partition. Had we sat in Opposition instead of being in govt the picture today would have been different," Raut told ANI. Raut went on to say that Shiv Sena and Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) are relaxed about the seat-sharing formula and a decision on the same would be informed by the coalition to the media soon.
