Is BJP Searching Ajit Pawar's Alternative?

The coalition in Maharashtra headed by BJP is in trouble source says. Though many BJP leaders have been accommodated by Eknath Shinde and Ajit Pawar by allotting party symbols to contest the elections but seems BJP leadership is not happy with ingoings in the NCP led by Ajit Pawar source says. Ajit Pawar despite objections from the BJP quarters, gave a ticket to Nawab Malik source says. BJP in retaliation asked firebrand leader Kirit Somaiya to issue a statement source says. Kirit Somaiya branded him as a terrorist and connected with the Mafia source says. In addition to this BJP ensured to remove the photo and slogan of Ajit Pawar from all publicity material sources. Photos of national leaders and all state leaders are on all posters etc san Ajit Pawar source says. Probably Ajit Pawar is depending on the recent survey report source. The report indicates that his going with solely Hinduttawa resulted in the drifting of Muslim voters and the outcome reflected in the parliamentary elections source says. This compulsion has presumably forced him to take such a risk to nominate Malik source says.
