No new proposal from Sena, says BJP

BJP will present its list of candidates to central parliamentary board tomorrow

The BJP today said it has not received any new proposal on seat sharing from Shiv Sena for the Maharashtra Assembly polls.

The state unit will present its list of candidates before the central parliamentary board in Delhi tomorrow.

"We have not received any proposal (on seat sharing) from Shiv Sena," state BJP poll in-charge Om Mathur told reporters here this afternoon after a meeting of the party's state core committee at leader of opposition Eknath Khadse's official residence.

"We will submit list of our candidates at the BJP parliamentary board meeting in Delhi tomorrow," Mathur said.

Asked about Uddhav Thackeray's remarks that the Sena had sent its proposal on seat sharing to BJP, Mathur said, "We have not received any new formula (from Sena).

"At yesterday's meeting (with Aaditya Thackeray and Subhash Desai of Shiv Sena) it was decided that we will be told about when to sit for the next meeting. So far, we haven't got any intimation about that."

Mathur said the party will hold discussions on seat allocation for associate parties.
