The Shiv Sena was undecided on supporting the no-confidence motion that the TDP sought to move in Parliament against the BJP-led NDA government, senior party leader Sanjay Raut said today.
The comments from Raut, whose party shared testy ties with the BJP, came a day before the beginning of the Monsoon Session of Parliament.
However, an MP from the Telugu Desam Party (TDP) said he was hopeful of receiving support for the motion not just from the Sena, but some BJP MPs as well.
Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister and TDP president N Chandrababu Naidu had sought the support of non-BJP, non-Congress parties for the no-confidence motion his party sought to move against the NDA government over non-fulfilment of the promise to grant special status to the state.
"We have not yet decided on the no-confidence motion. A decision will be taken at an appropriate time. However, we will not go by the TDP's agenda. We will do what is in the interest of the country," Raut told PTI.
"We will fight our own battle," added the Rajya Sabha MP.
When a response was sought on the Sena's stand, TDP Lok Sabha MP P Ravindra Babu said, "When the motion is called out, not just the Sena, but even some MPs from the BJP will support it."
