Leaders from Raj Thackeray's Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) held discussions with Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis at his official residence, hinting at a possible alliance with the BJP for the upcoming Lok Sabha elections. MNS representatives, including Bala Nandgaonkar, Sandip Deshpande, and Nitin Sardesai, have been tasked by Thackeray to negotiate potential seat-sharing agreements. While details remain undisclosed, the talks suggest significant political realignments in Maharashtra, where the state is poised to play a crucial role with its 48 Lok Sabha seats and 288 assembly constituencies. The outcome could reshape the political landscape ahead of dual electoral contests in the state this year.
