Congress' Maharashtra in-charge refuted claims of any rift in the alliance, and affirmed that Maha Vikas Aghadi will contest the upcoming assembly elections together and all candidates will be declared by today. After attending the Congress' Central Election Committee (CEC) meeting in Delhi, Chennithala said that Congress' Balasaheb Thorat will meet Shiv Sena (UBT) chief Uddhav Thackeray and NCP-SP Chief Sharad Pawar on Saturday to sort out all the issues. "All is well in Maharashtra, Maha Vikas Aghadi.
We are going to fight the election together. There is no problem in Maha Vikas Aghadi. The problem is in Mahayuti.
We are together and we are working out a formula, and by tomorrow all seats will be declared. In Mahayuti, the problem is much more. I have asked Balasaheb Thorat to meet Uddhav ji and Sharad Pawar ji to thrash out all the issues," he told reporters on Friday.
Maharashtra Congress President Nana Patole said, "We are demanding some seats...
On the seats we have got, we have tried to do justice to OBC (candidates)." Congress leader Balasaheb Thorat also confirmed that the party's final list will be declared today. "The final list is most likely to be released tomorrow.
..We will see if there is scope in seat adjustment and will hold talks with Uddhav Thackeray tomorrow, in line with both our demands," Thorat told reporters.
The Central Election Committee (CEC) meeting of Congress for the selection of candidates for the Maharashtra Assembly polls was held at the All In.
