In the midst of the ongoing political crisis in Maharashtra, for the first time, the BJP has indicated to form the government. The government in the state is in danger of becoming unstable due to a major breakdown in Shiv Sena and more than 40 MLAs sitting in Guwahati. The BJP has not yet opened its cards and has denied having any hand in this crisis. However, Union Minister of State Raosaheb Danve gave a clear indication on Sunday that the BJP is active in this development and can also form the government. Speculations have intensified since his statement.
“I am a minister in the central government,” he said at the inauguration of a building of the Agriculture Department in Jalna. Tope sahib is a minister in the state government. I have been handling the ministry for two and a half years. Whatever you guys have done in 14 years or whatever is left, do it quickly. Time is running out. If you want an opportunity in future we will consider that. But a lot of work needs to be done in the district.
Tope sahib, I am in opposition for two to three days and I have put my views before you.”
Danve made this remark at a time when former Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis is constantly maintaining silence.
Why was Raosaheb Danve furious at the administration?
In fact, he was not invited by the administration to the program. Responding to this, he said that he would remain in the opposition for two to three days. Angry at not being invited, Danve asked if the officials did not know the protocol. I have come at the behest of Rajesh Tope and he had invited me. Well, we are in opposition only for the next two to three days. Significantly, the round of speculation continues regarding the political situation in Maharashtra. Meanwhile, the MLAs of the Eknath Shinde faction have moved the Supreme Court against the disqualification notice, which is going to be heard today.
Will BJP attack the Eknath Shinde faction on the Scindia model?
There are also reports that the Madhya Pradesh formula can now be implemented in Maharashtra by the BJP. Most of the MLAs, including Eknath Shinde, are powerful in their areas. In such a situation, his resignation can be taken and if the strength of the House is less, a vote of confidence can be brought to form the government. After this, the MLAs who have resigned will be given a chance in the by-election and if some people lose then they can be adjusted at other places.
