Mumbai: Shiv Sena is unlikely to join the Devendra Fadnavis government in Maharashtra to be sworn in tomorrow as talks for a possible tie-up are on with it in an "amicable atmosphere", BJP general secretary Rajiv Pratap Rudy said today.
"It seems unlikely that any Shiv Sena minister will be sworn in tomorrow. Talks with Sena are on in an amicable atmosphere for a possible tie-up in Maharashtra but there has been no outcome yet," Rudy told PTI.
Maintaining that BJP was looking forward to a decision soon, he said, "This may not happen tomorrow." Rudy said BJP has accepted NCP's offer of outside support in the larger interest of development of Maharashtra.

"Any political group, formation or individual ready to extend unconditional support to the BJP government in the larger interest of development of Maharashtra will certainly be welcome without reservations," he said.
Asked if the party had submitted any written communication about NCP's support while staking claim to form government, he said, "We have not given any written submission.
We have just staked claim for the formation of government as the single largest party."
