Pawar: MVA will regain power if allies fight jointly in Mumbai

Kolhapur: If the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) partners – NCP, Shiv Sena and Congress – contest the next assembly elections together, the alliance will return to power in the state, NCP chief Sharad Pawar said in Mahabaleshwar on Wednesday.
Pawar was reacting to BJP state chief Chandrakant Patil’s recent statement that his party would be back in power in the state next year.
Pawar said: “He (Patil) initially said the MVA government will not last even 15 days; then he said one month; and then six months.
