Hindustan Times  

Mumbai: Members of the Maharashtra Vikas Aghadi met in Mumbai on Thursday and are believed to have decided on a formula for seat sharing in the coming Lok Sabha polls, although the final decision is yet to be taken. According to people familiar with the matter, the Shiv Sena will contest the highest number of seats followed by the Congress and the Sharad Pawar faction of the NCP in that order. MVA leaders wrote an invitation letter to Vanchit Bahujan Aaghadi president Prakash Ambedkar requesting him to attend the meeting ; Ambedkar refused to attend the meeting and wrote back saying state Congress president Nana Patole had no authority to invite him. “I will attend the meeting with invitation letter signed by Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge, Uddhav Thackeray and Sharad Pawar” he wrote. Congress was represented by state president Nana Patole, former CM Ashok Chavan and senior leader Balasaheb Thorat and NCP was represented by state president Jayant Patil, Anil Deshmukh and Jitendra Awhad.
