The Maharashtra governor Bhagat Singh Koshyari has invited the Shiv Sena to form government after the BJP said it will not stake claim. The BJP and Shiv Sena have been unable to resolve their disagreements over power-sharing in the state which has brought the three-decades old alliance between the two parties on edge. The Shiv Sena has put all its MLAs at a resort at Madh Island in suburban Mumbai. The party led by Uddhav Thackeray says it wants to stop any attempt by the BJP to poach its MLAs.
