Key Points

Upset with Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) leaders for publicly voicing their contradictory views, Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) chief Sharad Pawar has told Shiv Sena (UBT) chief Uddhav Thackeray to ensure that leaders of all three key players of the alliance speak in one voice before the masses...

The NCP chief said all the three parties might have their own agenda and their own plans and policies, but when they go before the people as MVA leaders, they need to speak in one voice and one language..

Raut said the Sena chief agreed with Pawars views and expressed the need to hold discussions about not airing their views publicly, creating confusion and giving the BJP a handle to slam them..

The meeting was held in this backdrop, Raut said.. Raut said the two leaders also discussed several issues including the demand for a JPC probe on the Adani issue, the uproar created by the ruling BJP in Parliament over Rahul Gandhis remarks in London, PM Narendra Modis degree and the damage caused by unseasonal rain in Maharashtra..

They also discussed Chief Minister Eknath Shinde and Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnaviss visit to Ayodhya instead of taking steps to alleviate farmers woes, Raut said.. Raut added that Pawar is likely to attend one of the rallies being organised by the MVA across the state ahead of the elections..
