Committee member and Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Sanjay Raut said, today we all will go to the meeting. The agenda decided in the Mumbai meeting will be discussed. Everyone except TMC is going to attend the meeting.
TMC leader Abhishek Banerjee is a member of this committee, he is not attending this meeting because ED and BJP do not want him to attend.
Meeting will be held at Sharad Pawar’s house in Delhi at 4 pm
This meeting will be held at the Delhi residence of NCP supremo Sharad Pawar. In this, issues like seat sharing and deciding the names of candidates can be discussed.
The committee members have prepared the agenda, which will be finalized in the meeting. Decisions on joint rallies, joint publicity and social media strategy are to be taken in the meeting. According to sources, to prepare the roadmap for elections and campaign, the states have been divided into 4 categories. Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Jharkhand, Maharashtra and Karnataka have been included in the first and most important category.
BJP has 212 seats in these 5 states, 180
The focus will be on the strength of the alliance and common strategy in the five states of the first category. There are 212 Lok Sabha seats in these five states, of which more than 180 are with the BJP. The political situation of these states has changed after 2019. In UP, SP was reduced to only 47 seats in the 2017 assembly elections. Its seats will increase to 111 in 2022.
In Bihar, JDU has distanced itself from BJP and formed the government with RJD. There is an opposition government in Jharkhand also. The government in Maharashtra is of NDA, yet the Sharad Pawar-Uddhav Thackeray duo is standing firmly with the Congress. At the same time, Congress is claiming to repeat the victory of Karnataka in the Lok Sabha elections.
Before the meeting, Uddhav Thackeray and Sanjay Raut met Sharad Pawar on Tuesday night. This meeting lasted for about 90 minutes.
