JALNA: Maharashtra BJP president Raosaheb Danve on Friday said his party will win more seats than the Shiv Sena in the ensuing Lok Sabha elections if the latter does not enter into a pre-poll alliance with it.
Addressing a press conference here, he said absence of an alliance between the BJP and the Shiv Sena will benefit the Congress and the NCP.
"The BJP will win more seats than the Shiv Sena in the ensuing Lok Sabha elections if the Sena does not forge an alliance with the BJP," he said.
Danve said the BJP has made preparations to contest all the 48 Lok Sabha seats in the state in case there was no alliance with the Uddhav Thackeray-led party.
Danve said the executive meeting of the state BJP will be held at Kalash Seeds in Jalna town on January 28.
Danve would inaugurate the day-long conclave, while Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis will address the valedictory session.
Around 1,000 delegates from across the state will take part in the meeting, he added.
Later, the chief minister will address a public meeting, he said.
