Maharashtra: Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis on Thursday claimed that he will throw light on the whole truth about the formation of the short-lived government in Maharashtra in 2019 with NCP leader Ajit Pawar. He claimed that the party supremo Sharad Pawar was in the loop all through.
The truth in the public domain is half
"All the details will surface gradually, and you all will learn about them. What is in the public domain is only half the truth. I will bring out all the details," Fadnavis told reporters, responding to questions.
“The moment I say something, more information comes out from the other side. I am the one who will bring out everything,” he added.
Sharad Pawar on President's rule in Maharashtra
Sharad Pawar said on Wednesday cryptically that President's rule in Maharashtra was lifted only after the Fadnavis-Ajit Pawar government was formed. Uddhav Thackeray would not have become CM until President's rule was lifted, he said.
Fadnavis joining hands with Ajit Pawar had taken the state by surprise even as the BJP and Shiv Sena had fallen out after the 2019 Assembly elections.
Fadnavis-Ajit Pawar government lasted for only three days
But the Fadnavis-Ajit Pawar government lasted for only three days as they did not have the numbers, and it was followed by the Uddhav Thackeray-led Shiv Sena-NCP-Congress 'Maha Vikas Aghadi' government. Nationalist Congress Party chief spokesperson Mahesh Tapase, meanwhile, accused Fadnavis and state BJP chief Chandrashekhar Bawankule of trying to mislead people.
