Nationalist Congress Party leader Praful Patel has claimed 51 out of the 53 party MLAs had told NCP chief Sharad Pawar, that a possibility of joining hands with the BJP should be explored after the MVA government in Maharashtra collapsed last year.
If the NCP can form a government with the Shiv Sena, why not with the BJP, Patel, who has switched over to Ajit Pawar’s side, said in an interview to Marathi news channel Zee 24 Taas. The Uddhav Thackeray-led Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) government, comprising the Shiv Sena (then undivided), NCP and Congress, collapsed in June last year after a revolt led by Shinde.
