Putting to rest speculations about what was decided among the BJP and Sena before polls, Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis on Tuesday said that to the best to his knowledge, the ally wasn't promised a CM's post for two and a half years during the pre-Lok Sabha alliance meeting in February this year. However, Fadnavis also added that BJP's national leadership should know better the assurances made, if any, because he wasn't part of the negotiations then.
"When we (the BJP and Sena) had a pre-Lok Sabha meeting, the Sena had proposed rotating the chief minister's post but no decision regarding it was taken then in my presence. It should be known to party president Amitji Shah and Sena president Uddhavji Thackeray," said Fadnavis, speaking to media persons at a Diwali get-together at his official residence Varsha on Tuesday.
