Mumbai | Tuesday | 12th February, 2019

Summary:

The Shiv Sena on Monday criticised Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis for claiming that the BJP would clinch 43 of 48 seats in Maharashtra in the upcoming Lok Sabha polls. AdvertisingIn an editorial in the party’s mouthpiece Saamana, the Sena took a jibe at the BJP, saying that the party might win all 48 Lok Sabha seats in Maharashtra and all 548 Lok Sabha seats in the country independently. The Sena’s remarks comes after Fadnavis claimed Saturday, in presence of BJP chief Amit Shah, that the party could win 43 Lok Sabha seats — one more than it had won in 2014 — in Maharashtra. “The government has no solution for these issues, but has a solution on winning 43 seats in the state. Rather than discussing these issues, the BJP is talking about defeating some people,” it said..
