Vanchit Bahujan Aghadi (VBA) in Maharashtra has all but announced that it will not be a part of the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) Opposition alliance and will contest the general elections on its own.
VBA chief Prakash Ambedkar on Sunday said his party will wait for two more days before announcing its course of action.
«We haven't got much of a response (on their demand for seats)… They themselves (Congress-Uddhav Balasaheb Thackeray Sena and Nationalist Congress Party Sharad Pawar) are fighting on 15 seats between them,» said Ambedkar.
«We are ready to sit with them to resolve the issue.
However, if things do not progress with them, then we would speak to other parties.» Ambedkar also slammed Uddhav Thackeray Sena group Rajya Sabha MP Sanjay Raut, who has been claiming that the MVA had offered four seats to VBA but the latter has still not accepted it.
