Maharashtra: Shiv Sena MPs at PM Narendra Modis tea party to possible patch-up for government

NEW DELHI: After a bitter parting of ways in the run-up to the Maharashtra polls, presence of Shiv Sena MPs at Prime Minister Narendra Modi's tea party on Sunday indicated that the estranged saffron allies are well on track to repair the rift ahead of government formation in the state.

All Shiv Sena MPs, including Union heavy industries minister Anant Geete, attended the 'Diwali Milan' get- together.

The development was significant as it showed that the Sena has mellowed down and BJP, despite being on a strong wicket, decided to show flexibility after having proved the point as to who was the bigger partner in the saffron alliance and the biggest anti-Congress force.

Talking to TV channels before going for the tea party, Geete echoed the new conciliatory tone of his party. He stressed the Sena is part of the NDA.

Soon after the tea party, BJP leaders in Mumbai announced the party's willingness to bring the Sena into the alliance, dropping hints of a possible tie-up.

"BJP wants to bring Shiv Sena into alliance and form Maharashtra government," state BJP leader Vinod Tawde said while announcing that the final decision will be taken only after a meeting of the Maharashtra BJP legislature party on Tuesday.

Tawde's statement came immediately after his meeting with Maharashtra BJP president Devendra Fadnavis over preparations for government formation.

The BJP legislature party meeting on Tuesday will also be attended by party observer Rajnath Singh and new in-charge of the party affairs in the state J P Nadda.

"No political discussions took place during the meeting. It was purely an official function," Geete told reporters after the tea party.

The BJP emerged as the single largest party, winning 122 seats in the recently held elections to the 288-member Maharashtra assembly. The party appears comfortable at this juncture as Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) - which won 41 seats has already offered it unconditional outside support.

Mississippi Supreme Court Ends Cochrans Tea Party Problem

Mississippi Tea Party candidate Chris McDaniel lost his attempt to revisit a losing primary challenge against U.S. Senator Thad Cochran, leaving the incumbent in a strong position to retain his seat and boosting Republican efforts to gain control of the Senate.

McDaniel, who got the most votes in an initial three-candidate primary, lost a subsequent runoff against Cochran. He challenged the results weeks later, alleging voter fraud. A lower court judge, and yesterday the Mississippi Supreme Court in Jackson, ruled McDaniel filed his allegations too late.

The battle played out as Republicans need a net gain of six seats in the Nov. 4 election to take majority control of the chamber from Democrats. Cochran, a seven-term incumbent, won the runoff in part by reaching out to minority voters who traditionally vote Democratic. As of Oct. 2, he led his Democratic opponent, Travis Childers, by double digits.

McDaniels lawyers told the state high court that day that the 20-day deadline for challenging election results was repealed in 1986, when state lawmakers overhauled the election code to eradicate measures that discriminated against black voters. McDaniel filed his protest 41 days after losing the June 24 runoff.

Mississippi Tea Party Candidate Chris McDaniels lawyers told the state high court that day that the 20-day deadline for challenging election results was repealed in 1986, when state lawmakers overhauled the election code to eradicate measures that discriminated against black voters. McDaniel filed his protest 41 days after losing the June 24 runoff.

After reviewing sections of the old and new code side-by-side, the supreme court determined that the portion of the election code at issue wasnt repealed, according to a 17-page split decision.

We are not creating a deadline, Associate Justice Leslie D. King wrote for the majority. The deadline already exists; it was put in place by the legislature in 1908, and it was carried forward into the present statute.
