Congress gets into huddle over Mah Govt formation
   Date :11-Nov-2019
THE Congress party got into a huddle on Sunday night after the BJP declined to form a Government in Maharashtra and the Shiv Sena claimed it will have its Chief Minister in the State.
 
All Congress legislators from Maharashtra reached Jaipur on Sunday and were holding a discussion on the possibility of a Sena-led Government. Senior party leaders were also attending the meeting, Congress sources said. Senior party leader Ahmed Patel is also likely to reach Jaipur. After the meeting, Congress leaders are likely to discuss the issue with the top party leadership in Delhi.
 
The sources said NCP chief Sharad Pawar may also meet Congress President Sonia Gandhi on Monday, to discuss the possibility of the two parties supporting a Sena-led Government. Senior Congress leader Mallikarjun Kharge, who is camping in Jaipur along with the party legislators from Maharashtra, said earlier Sunday his party has “accepted” the public mandate to it to sit in the Opposition in the State. The newly-elected MLAs of Maharashtra Congress are staying at a resort in Jaipur.
