According to sources, Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (MIM) will abstain from voting against the party during the trust vote today; CM Devendra Fadnavis claims BJP has succeeded in garnering support of 140 MLAs
It SEEMS the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) will sail through the trust vote today without hiccups. The party claims it has managed to gather support from a total of 140 MLAs.
It already has 122 MLAs, including an alliance partner, and sources said that the party would receive indirect support from unexpected quarters — the Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (MIM), which has decided to abstain from voting against the BJP.
Speaking with media persons at his chamber in Vidhan Bhavan on Tuesday. Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis said that apart from 122 MLAs from the BJP and its ally, three MLAs from Bahujan Vikas Aaghadi, and a group of independent MLAs have decided to support his government. A delegation of eight MLAs, led by the Peasants and Workers Party (PWP), met him and told him they had decided to back the government.
Though Fadnavis didn’t reveal who are supporting the BJP, sources said the two MLAs of MIM have decided not to vote against the party. A dialogue with the MIM was established through RPI leader and Rajya Sabha member Ramdas Athawale, sources claimed, adding that the party has decided to stay neutral.
Former journalist and newly elected MLA Imtiaz Jaleel took a similar line while talking to a section of the media on Monday. “We are for development and we are not going to vote during the trust vote,” he said. With this assertion, it is clear that MIM’s decision is going to benefit the BJP government. Bandra West MLA Ashish Shelar will move the trust vote today.
