“We have conveyed our decision to snap ties to Shiv Sena. The decision was taken with a heavy heart,” Maharashtra BJP chief Devendra Fadnavis told reporters after a meeting of the state party’s core committee.
The BJP, however, hinted at the possibility of a post-poll alliance with its estranged ally, saying the party would not criticize Shiv Sena during the campaign and remain friends.
