BJP has offered 106 seats to Shiv Sena in Maharashtra

The BJP has offered 106 seats to its key alliance partner Shiv Sena for the Maharashtra Assembly elections that will be held in next month, a source said on Thursday.

A BJP source said that seat-sharing talks between the two parties are likely to conclude in a day or two. "We have offered the Sena 106 seats. But the Sena may agree to 120 (and no less)," the source said.
