‘Friendly war’ continues between BJP and Shiv Sena in Maharashtra
Pressure politics of Shiv Sena for the post of Chief Minister to end soon!
OCT 30 (WTN) - No one knows what happens in politics? Let you know that politics rests on profit and prospects. Where there is profit and there is a possibility of profit in the future, political parties prefer to invest there. But these days the ups and downs of politics are being seen in Maharashtra, and everyone's eyes are on it. As you know, no political party has got an absolute majority in the recently concluded assembly elections in Maharashtra.
Though the BJP and Shiv Sena alliance have got an absolute majority in the recently concluded Maharashtra assembly elections, there is a tussle between these two parties over the chief ministerial post. As you know that the BJP-Shiv Sena coalition ran a government in Maharashtra for five years and Devendra Fadnavis was the chief minister of the coalition government. In the 2014 Assembly elections, both the BJP and Shiv Sena contested separately and later formed an alliance to form the government after the elections. But in this time Assembly elections, both parties contested together and the BJP-Shiv Sena alliance got a majority.
But this time Shiv Sena has started showing its attitude for the post of Chief Minister. Shiv Sena says that this time in the coalition government, only BJP’s chief minister will not be alone for five years but the chief ministers of both the party will rule for the two-and-a-half-year time period. Due to this negotiation of Shiv Sena, even after so many days after the assembly elections are over, the government has not been formed in Maharashtra. The Shiv Sena is repeatedly reminding the BJP of 50-50 formula.
Actually, Shiv Sena says that BJP has weakened in the recently concluded assembly elections. According to Shiv Sena, in the last assembly election, BJP contested alone and BJP won 122 seats, whereas in this time assembly election, BJP contested in the alliance with Shiv Sena but BJP could win only 105 seats.
Shiv Sena argues that the BJP has not been able to increase its seats even after contesting elections with the alliance, which means that the BJP has weakened. Regarding this, Shiv Sena says that if the BJP-Shiv Sena coalition government is formed, then both parties should remain Chief Minister for two-and-a-half years.
BJP leaders are shocked but not troubled by the kind of bargain Shiv Sena is negotiating to form the government in Maharashtra and attacking the BJP through statements. Politics experts believe that bargaining has been taking place in politics. Whenever there is an opportunity in the politics of India, it has negotiated by the political parties. But as far as the negotiation of Shiv Sena in Maharashtra is concerned, it is being said that no matter how much Shiv Sena bargains or attacks the BJP with statements, it is a compulsion for Shiv Sena to form a government with the BJP.
On Shiv Sena's bargaining politics in Maharashtra, a senior BJP leader says that it is Shiv Sena's right to demand as a political party due to seeing its benefits. But whether or not to accept Shiv Sena's demand depends on the BJP and the BJP will resolve the issue through dialogue.
Politics experts say that the statements made by Shiv Sena may matter to the media, but the BJP has a habit of making such statements. During the last five years in the previous government, the Shiv Sena continued to target the BJP, but even after this, both the parties ran the government for the entire five years and contested elections in the Lok Sabha and Assembly elections.
According to the sources, the BJP has sent a message to the Shiv Sena that it is not going to get the chief minister's post and the Shiv Sena will have to be content with the post of deputy chief minister. However, the Shiv Sena also knows that the BJP is a big party and it is not going to give the post of Chief Minister. But still, the Shiv Sena is doing pressure politics for the post of Chief Minister. It is being said that Shiv Sena's strategy is to get important portfolios like Home and Finance in the coalition government in return for pressure on the Chief Ministerial post.
Now, one can say its Shiv Sena's helplessness or then its wisdom, but Shiv Sena cannot afford to go with any party other than BJP to form the government. This is why because, as you know, in the recently concluded assembly elections, Sharad Pawar has once again emerged as a major challenge to the BJP and Shiv Sena. In such a situation, Shiv Sena cannot take the risk of going with Sharad Pawar's party NCP and strengthening it even further.
In fact, for BJP, apart from Maharashtra, there are many other states for politics and BJP has its government in many states. But if the Shiv Sena in Maharashtra gives an opportunity to the NCP to become stronger, then the existence of the Shiv Sena confined to Maharashtra will come under threat. Anyway, Shiv Sena will have to come with BJP, because both parties have the same ideology. Even if the NCP supports the Shiv Sena to keep the BJP away from power, the NCP's vote bank will be affected if forming a government with the Shiv Sena.
As you know, the image of Shiv Sena has been fiercer Hindutva than BJP. In such a situation, if the Shiv Sena forms a government with the NCP and Congress for any reason, it will adversely affect the Hindutva image of Shiv Sena. By the way, anything is possible in politics. It may be that the NCP-Congress together may support the Shiv Sena to keep the BJP away from power and Aditya Thackeray may also become the Chief Minister, but this will only spoil the image of all the three parties as well as vote bank.
While the Shiv Sena does not have the option to form a government with anyone other than the BJP, the BJP also has no option to form a government with anyone other than the Shiv Sena. And It is clear that the BJP will not form the government along with the Congress. At the same time, some experts believe that Sharad Pawar, who is called ‘Chanakya’ of Maharashtra politics, should support the BJP from outside, as was done after the last Assembly elections. But the relationship between BJP and Sharad Pawar has deteriorated recently due to ED, it seems unlikely that BJP and NCP will come together.
It is clear that the mathematics of Maharashtra's politics is such that BJP and Shiv Sena will have to come together and form a government. Neither BJP nor Shiv Sena can form the government with NCP-Congress. In such a situation, it has to be seen now that the pressure politics of the Shiv Sena for the post of Chief Minister continues for how many days? The rest is certain to be the Chief Minister of Devendra Fadnavis once again if there is no major upsurge in the politics of Maharashtra.
