Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], October 20 : Congress leader Ramesh Chennithala, who is party's in-charge for Maharashtra, has said that seat-sharing meetings for assembly polls were being held between Maha Vikas Aghadi constituents and an announcement is expected to be made soon.
"Seat-sharing meetings are continuously taking place...We will soon announce it," he told reporters.
Some rumblings appeared to have erupted in the seat-sharing talks between Shiv Sena (UBT) and Congress.
Maharashtra Congress Chief Nana Patole said on Saturday that if Sanjay Raut was controlling Uddhav Thackeray, that is their issue.
"If Sanjay Raut is controlling Uddhav Thackeray, that is their issue. We have the responsibility of telling the reality of our leaders and we are doing that. We do not want to speak anything on what Sanjay Raut does.
"Patole also said that Sanjay Raut was the leader of Uddhav Thackeray and Patole's leaders were Malikarjun Kharge and Rahul Gandhi and the leader of NCP (SCP) was Sharad Pawar.
"Sanjay Raut is the leader of Uddhav Thackeray. Our leaders are Malikarjun Kharge and Rahul Gandhi and the leader of the NCP (SCP) is Sharad Pawar. In the seat-sharing committee, neither Sharad Pawar, Uddhav Thackeray, Malikarjun Kharge nor Rahul Gandhi remain present. But the committee has been formed at the orders of these leaders," he said.
Ramesh Chennithala on Saturday met Shiv Sena (UBT) Chief Uddhav Thackeray.
"I met Uddhav Thackeray today. He was in the hospital recently so I went to inquire about his health. 'Vo ab theek hai aur Maha Vikas Aghadi ka bhi tabeyat theek hai," Chennithala said while talking to the media.
Assembly elections in Maharashtra will be held in a single phase on November 20 with counting of votes on November 23.
