Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis on Wednesday said the BJP has consistently maintained communication with Raj Thackeray, amid talks of a potential alliance between his MNS and the Uddhav Thackeray-led Shiv Sena (UBT), reported PTI.
"We have spoken to Raj Thackeray before the Lok Sabha elections, before the Assembly elections, and we will speak to him before the corporation elections as well. But I cannot tell you now what the outcome of those talks will be," Fadnavis said at a media event hosted by a Marathi news channel, reported PTI.
