Mumbai: Shiv Sena minister Sanjay Shirsat on Wednesday said there was no possibility of BJP and Shiv Sena (UBT) joining hands again considering the attacks on Prime Minister Narendra Modi and home minister Amit Shah by leaders of the Uddhav Thackeray-led party.
Shirsat, whose party Sena is an ally of BJP in the Mahayuti govt, maintained the national saffron outfit will not accept those constantly targeting its top leadership.
“The BJP and Shiv Sena (UBT) will not come together. The BJP will not accept those who badmouth Modi and Shah,” he told reporters in response to a question whether there was any possibility of a reconciliation between the two estranged parties. Moreover, there was no political need for BJP as well as Sena (UBT) to join hands again, remarked the minister.
CM Devendra Fadnavis recently rejected Sanjay Raut’s claim that many leaders from BJP want an alliance with UBT Sena. PTI
