According to sources, in the meeting, Amit Shah once again said that he had not promised the post of Chief Minister to Uddhav Thackeray. Amit Shah said that BJP's victory in BMC elections is sure. The Union Home Minister said that under the guidance of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the BJP and the original Shiv Sena alliance should aim to win 150 seats in the BMC elections.

He said that under the leadership of PM Modi, BJP is sure to win in the BMC elections. People are with BJP led by PM Modi. Addressing the BJP leaders, Amit Shah said that Uddhav Thackeray had not only betrayed the BJP but betrayed the ideology and also insulted the mandate of the people of Maharashtra.

This veteran BJP leader said that today I want to say again that we had never promised Uddhav Thackeray the chief minister's post. We are not in a closed room, we are people doing politics with chest thumping.
