Fadnavis said, "My meeting with Raut had no political connotations. He asked me for an interview to 'Saamana', to which I agreed. But, I had put my conditions- like the interview should be unedited and I should get to put my camera during the interview. So we met to discuss its nitty-gritty" he said.
"We have no intention of joining hands with the Shiv Sena or to bring down the government. When it falls on its own, we will see." He added.
The Shiv Sena leader Sanjay Raut said that Fadnavis is a former CM of Maharashtra and it is not a crime to meet him. "He is a former CM. Also, he's the leader of opposition in Maharashtra & #BiharPolls-in charge of BJP. There can be ideological differences but we are not enemies. CM was aware of our meeting," Sanjay said.
