The hidden rumblings among members of the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) over the elusive Chief Minister’s chair of Maharashtra became apparent recently when Shiv Sena (UBT group) leader and former Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray was in the national capital for three days.
During this visit, he met top Congress leaders, including Sonia Gandhi, Rahul Gandhi, and party president Mallikarjuna Kharge.
While this is being described as a normal meeting in light of the impending Assembly elections in the state in November, it was the first meeting between the two party leaders since the Lok Sabha results, where the MVA secured 30 seats in Maharashtra.
Sources aware of the matter said that the three-day Delhi tour was prompted after speculation in Delhi’s political circles gained strength that Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) leader and Member of Parliament Supriya Sule was the most prominent choice for the Chief Minister’s post if the MVA wins, which, according to observers, is not out of the realm of possibility.
