BJP gives 12-hour deadline to Shiv Sena on seat-sharing in Maharashtra: sources

A day after the BJP blinked on seat sharing with long-time ally Shiv Sena for next month’s Maharashtra polls, the party has set a deadline for the Sena. Sources in the BJP say the party wants to contest a minimum of 130 of the 288 seats in the Maharashtra assembly and have given a 12-hour deadline to the Shiv Sena. If the Sena does not respond, the BJP will consider going it alone in Maharashtra, the sources said.
