Sanjay Raut has once again expressed confidence that the Chief Minister of Maharashtra will be from Shiv Sena. On Friday, Sanjay Raut also hoped that the common minimum program between the three parties would be in the interest of Maharashtra , regarding the possible coalition government of Shiv Sena, NCP and Congress . According to TV reports, the formula for alliance between Shiv Sena, NCP and Congress in Maharashtra has almost been decided.In TV reports, sources are being quoted saying that a big announcement is possible on November 17 about the coalition government. 17 November is also the death anniversary of Bal Thackeray, the founder of Shiv Sena. However, Sanjay Raut did not give a very clear answer to the news coming from the sources quoted. When Sanjay Raut was asked the question  whether the Shiv Sena CM will be for 5 years, or for two and a half years, he said- "We want that for 25 years to come''.Sanjay Raut also said, 'Congress has contributed to the independence of the country and we will take everyone along. The Common Minimum Program is designed for the interest of the state. Atal Bihari Vajpayee's government was also based on this.

Significantly, earlier on Thursday evening, before the possible coalition government of Congress and NCP with Shiv Sena in Maharashtra, the leaders of the three parties met to discuss the minimum common program.However, Raut on Thursday also tweeted, 'Rumors are being spread that Shiv Sena President Uddhav Thackeray had a meeting with Ahmed Patel and we have reached an agreement. On behalf of Uddhav Thackeray, I want to make it clear that this is a lie and is being spread deliberately. Our talks with Congress and NCP are going on. Earlier, senior Congress leader Prithviraj Chavan had said in the morning that the process of forming a government in the state is still in the initial stage and no decision has been taken yet.
