Boasting confidence on forming a government in Maharashtra again, BJP leader Devendra Fadnavis on Wednesday said that Uddhav Thackeray-led government will witness a downfall soon on its own. He asserted that although BJP is not eyeing a change of guard in the State, it will provide an alternative option.
On being asked about the impact of Bihar Assembly elections on Maharashtra, he said, “If we talk about this in the context of Maharashtra, it has raised our confidence. As far as change of power in Maharashtra is concerned we are not eyeing power in the state. This Maharashtra government will collapse one day on its own. This type of government cannot continue for long. When this government will fall, we will provide an alternative government. But today this is not our priority. There is an unprecedented agrarian crisis in Maharashtra. Farmers are worried. The government has not provided financial assistance to them. Being an Opposition party, we are with farmers and questioning the government,” the former Maharashtra CM added.
Fadnavis, who was the poll in-charge of BJP for Bihar elections said that the poll victory in Bihar would have its impact both in national politics as well as in West Bengal, which is heading into Assembly polls in the year 2021. “We can see the wind changing in Bengal. After Bengal elections, BJP is confident of forming the government there,” he continued.
Meanwhile, claiming about pro-incumbency for the ruling government in the state, Fadnavis told, "People trust Modi and Nitish Kumar’s good image also helped us win."
When asked about Lok Janshakti Party (LJP) denting NDA tally, he said: “Even though they were not with us, we secured a clear majority. We are happy that our alliance is forming the government.”
