The Union Home Minister, Amit Shah, met with the Chief Minister of Maharashtra, Eknath Shinde, as well as both Deputy Chief Ministers, Ajit Pawar and Devendra Fadnavis, during a series of late-night discussions that took place on Tuesday. The state of Maharashtra was the location of these interactions. Several chats took place in the late hours of the night. These conversations took place during the night. These sessions also included discussions on the distribution of seats for the Lok Sabha elections that were scheduled to take place in 2019, which was another topic of discussion that took place. Further, Shah was present during the second meeting that the leaders held in eight hours, which took place on Wednesday morning. This meeting was the second of two meetings that took place. Eight hours was the total amount of time that was spent in each of these meetings.
According to the reports, a consensus has been reached over the seats that constitute the substantial majority of the participants. In question, information has been made available to the general public.
The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is rumored to be focused on contesting for more than 32 seats in the upcoming election, according to the claims that have been made. In addition, it is predicted that the camp of Ajit Pawar, who is currently serving as the Deputy Chief Minister and the leader of the Nationalist Congress Party (NCP), will be able to accommodate themselves around three seats. Pawar is currently playing the role of Deputy Chief Minister.
When the new administration is formed, Shinde, who is now serving as the Chief Minister, will be granted access to a total of around ten seats in the cabinet. Candidates from the Shiv Sena and the Nationalist Congress Party will fight against one another for the Lotus insignia of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). However, candidates from the Shiv Sena and the Nationalist Congress Party will compete against one another for four more seats.
During the session that took place at the Sahyadri State Guest House in the city, the Home Minister also provided the two leaders with the advice to “refrain from aggression and be reasonable when demanding seats.” This advice was given as part of the talk. Throughout the meeting, this proposition was brought up on multiple occasions.
On March 2, before the announcement of the original list of 195 candidates for the Lok Sabha elections, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) did not include any candidates for the state of Maharashtra in its list of candidates. This was done in preparation for the elections. All of this was completed before the announcement was made.
An inspection of approximately sixteen Lok Sabha constituencies is currently being planned by Ajit Pawar, who is making some preparations for the inspection. It is during this time that Amit Shah is present in the state where this is taking place. This examination is going to be carried out during the time that Amit Shah is traveling throughout the other parts of the state.
One of the seats in the Lok Sabha that is now held by the Ajit Pawar group is the Raigad seat. This is the only seat that they currently possess. They now hold several seats, and Raigad is one of those seats. One of the individuals who is responsible for representing Raigad in things about legislation is Sunil Tatkare, who holds the position of state president of the party.
At this very moment, the Minister of the Interior is in the state on a visit that will last for a few days. An extension of this visit is planned to take place.
Sambhajinagar was the destination that Shah arrived at on Tuesday. In addition to being the place where Shah landed, Sambhajinagar, which is situated in the Marathwada region, was the center of attention for the controversy that surrounded the Maratha reservation. Both a roadshow and a public meeting were held in Sambhajinagar, which had been a Shiv Sena stronghold for more than twenty years. He was the host of both events. It was in the latter portion of the day that both of these incidents occurred.
