The Business Guardian|November 27, 2024
Shiv Sena (UBT) MP Sanjay Raut criticised and mocked Eknath Shinde-led Shiv Sena, and Ajit Pawar-led Nationalist Congress Party on Tuesday, saying being in alliance with Bharatiya Janata Party, they cannot decide on the candidate for Maharashtra Chief Minister and have instead become "sub-companies of BJP."
Sanjay Raut labels Ajit Pawar, Eknath Shinde as 'BJP Sub-companies'

"The CM will be decided by Union Home Minister Amit Shah and PM Narendra Modi. Eknath Shinde and Ajit Pawar cannot make decisions for their parties on their own. These two parties are slaves of Amit Shah and PM Modi and are sub-companies of the BJP," he said at a press conference in Mumbai.

During the press conference, he also predicted that BJP's Devendra Fadnavis will be chosen as the CM.

"Currently, the BJP has a majority, just short of a few seats, but yes I agree they have the power; if they don't have a majority, then they can break Eknath Shinde's and Ajit Pawar's parties for the majority. They are experts on that; it is seen in Maharashtra before. According to me, Devendra Fadnavis will be the next CM," Raut said.
