“There are no other topics that appear for discussion during our meeting,” he added.
The meeting between Fadnavis and Thackeray, whose party has shared power in Maharashtra from 2014 to 2019, has produced intense political interests amid speculation that BJP and Sena leaders have agreed informally to be soft to each other especially behind the rane episode.
The all-party meeting was held at the Sahyadri Guest House from the state government here about the problem of restoring reservations for other backup (OBC) in the local government agency.
CM Thackeray said all political parties agreed to restore reservations for OBC in local government agencies and decisions would be taken in a week.
