Mumbai, Jul 24 (DC): After being embarrassed by the Shiv Sena’s abstention in the ‘no-confidence’ motion against the PM Narendra Modi government last week, the BJP has decided not to initiate any dialogue with the Shiv Sena for an alliance for the next elections. The BJP is already preparing to go solo for the upcoming polls next 

year, and the state leadership has been apprised of the same by BJP president Amit Shah.

Meanwhile, Uddhav Thackeray continued his tirade against the BJP and Mr Modi. In an interview given to his party’s mouthpiece Saamana, the Shiv Sena leader stood by his decision to not support the BJP government in the no-confidence motion and said that the Shiv Sena is not going to fight for Mr Modi’s dream.

Mr Thackeray and Sanjay Raut have repeatedly been slamming PM Modi and Mr Fadnavis. In other embarrassing postures by the Sena, Mr Thackeray didn’t allow MP Anil Desai to be sworn in as a minister in the Union government after his name was communicated to the President. After that, in November 2014, PM Modi did not offer any more ministerial posts to the Sena. According to BJP sources, PM Modi and Mr Shah will never again compromise with the Sena.
