Amid the ongoing battle with senior ally BJP over formation of government in Maharashtra, Shiv Sena president Uddhav Thackeray on Sunday said people will come to know if his party will be in power, in the coming days.

“You will come to know in the coming days if the Shiv Sena will be in power,” Thackeray said to the media at a press conference in the state’s Aurangabad district.

Thackeray’s comments came after he toured parts of Maharashtra which suffered crop damage due to unseasonal rains last month, along with Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, despite the deadlock over seat sharing.

While Fadnavis is in Akola on November 3 to meet farmers and review the crop damage caused in the district due to untimely rains, Thackeray is touring Aurangabad district where he will take stock of the crop losses in Kannad and Vaijapur talukas.

Thackeray said that the Rs. 10,000 crore RPT crore package announced by the Maharashtra government for crop damages suffered by farmers due to unseasonal rains was not enough.

He said the affected farmers should get Rs. 25,000 per hectare as compensation. “More assistance should follow. Farmers should get what is their right,” he said.

During a Cabinet sub-committee meeting on Saturday, Fadnavis directed the officials concerned to review the ground situation in their respective areas and finalise details of the assistance to be provided.

Thackeray also demanded that the Centre explain to people how the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) agreement will benefit the country.

The BJP and Shiv Sena, which contested the October 21 state elections together, have been locked in a battle over sharing of the chief minister’s post and are yet to start formal talks over government formation.
