Mumbai: Seat-sharing troubles continue in Maharashtra where the smaller parties in the grand Shiv Sena-BJP Mahayuti alliance have issued an ultimatum.
They have rejected the Sena's offer of seven seats to them. The Republican Party of India, the Rashtriya Samaj Party and Swabhimani Shetkari Sanghathana have threatened to release their list of candidates if the Sena and the BJP don't adjust the seat sharing by 11 am on Thursday.
The BJP has said it doesn't want the alliance to break.
"We cannot think of contesting the Maharashtra elections without our small but strong alliance partners," BJP leader Rajiv Pratap Rudy said.
"We have to take them along. It is our firm commitment and there cannot be any understanding considering the demands of these small, strong and relianble alliance parties," he added.
