In its Editorial mouthpiece ‘Samana’, the state party said “It has to be asked why Amit is conducting these meetings now after the BJP suffered defeats in bypolls. Sena will contest the 2019 elections solo. The Palghar bypoll results have shown the Sena’s strength.”
“PM Narendra Modi is touring the world and BJP chief Amit Shah is touring the country as part of their ‘Sampark Abhiyan’. Shah will be meeting NDA allies. But what exactly will he do? It has to be asked why he is conducting these meetings now after the BJP suffered defeats in bypolls. Sena will contest the 2019 elections solo. The Palghar bypoll results have shown the Sena’s strength,” the party said in an editorial in its mouthpiece Saamana before the Shah-Thackeray meet.
It further mentioned that Andhra Pradesh CM Chandrababu Naidu had broken ties with the BJP. “So, is a visit to Naidu included in Shah’s outreach effort?” the Sena asked. “The winds of change of government are blowing in Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh. A change of government is imminent in Maharashtra as well,” it added.
