BJP leadership pressured Shinde to give up over CM post: Patole
Maharashtra Congress President Nana Patole claimed that BJP's central leadership has pressured Shiv Sena's Eknath Shinde to give up his claim on the post of the state's chief minister. "It is condemnable to keep Maharashtra waiting (in terms of government formation)," Patole added. "I have told PM Modi...whatever decision you take, that decision is acceptable to me," Shinde said.
