Janjivan Bureau / MUMBAI: The Congress on Wednesday said Maharashtra deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis’ offer to resign following the setback suffered by the BJP in the state in the Lok Sabha elections was only “drama”.
Fadnavis is running an “unconstitutional government” and had publicly stated that he returned to power by breaking up two parties, said state Congress spokesperson Atul Londhe.
“His wish to resign is just drama. You (Fadnavis) used official machinery to give the breakaway factions of Shiv Sena and Nationalist Congress Party the (original) party symbol and name. But the people have now expressed their opinion about who these two parties belong to. Will (Prime Minister) Modi resign?” he asked in a statement.
