“Ninety or eighty-five seats – no formula has been fixed. Whoever can win, that party will be considered. Our effort is to put forth our best candidate. The BJP-led Mahayuti government talks of giving respect to women but uses language that states otherwise.”
Jayant Patil, State President, NCP (SP)
“Haryana Congress contested on all seats but could not form the government. So they have to take everyone along. If anyone needs the ‘Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas’ slogan, then it has to be the MVA. Talks are on with Abu Azmi. He will get his two constituencies but he has declared his seats. PWP declared its seats. This is not right.”
Sanjay Raut, Leader, Congress
“Discussions are still on over seven to eight seats. We are fighting like a family - taking everyone, including the elder brother and younger brother, along. The BJP’s second list will be released tomorrow and we will also come out with a joint manifesto. We heard that Rahul Gandhi fired the state leaders for mishandling the seat-sharing talks.”
Chandrashekhar Bawankule, President, Maharashtra BJP
