Patil, who is on a two day tour of the district, also said he had met MNS chief Raj Thackeray here during the day but added that any decision on an alliance with the latter would be decided by the BJP`s core team.

"We are ready to contest the forthcoming NMC polls alone, but if like-minded parties want to join, we can take them along," he said.
