 "Sena and BJP can come together; Uddhav to decide, says Manohar Joshi")
Former Maharashtra chief minister and senior Shiv Sena leader Manohar Joshi on Tuesday said his party and BJP can come together in near future.
Sena chief Uddhav Thackeray will take a decision on this issue at the right time, Joshi told reporters.
"Instead of fighting over small issues, it is better to tolerate some things. It is good to share issues which you feel strongly about. If both parties work together, it is beneficial for both," he said.
"It is not that Shiv Sena will never go with the BJP again. Uddhav Thackeray will take the right decision at the right time," Joshi said.
The senior Sena leader's comments came in the backdrop of the recent parting of ways between the two old allies over sharing the chief minister's post.
The Shiv Sena, NCP and Congress formed the government last month after the Thackeray-led party fell out with pre- poll ally BJP over sharing the chief ministerial post.
