Meanwhile in an interview with NDTV, deputy cm devendra fadnavis said that the work that is being done now in mumbai should have been done 20 years ago. He said, "Show one big work that uddhav thackeray did. We worked like a bullet on a bullet train, uddhav stopped it." The former chief minister said that an agreement has been reached between the BJP-Shinde-led Shiv Sena-Nationalist congress Party (Ajit Pawar) alliance for 80 percent of the seats in the state. This time bjp will break the record of seats, although he also said that he himself will not contest the lok sabha elections.

Regarding the assembly elections to be held at the end of this year, fadnavis made it clear that the elections will be fought under the leadership of chief minister Shinde. On the possibility of an alliance with raj Thackeray's MNS, the bjp leader said that talks are not going on with them, but "an alliance is not ruled out either". He said that bjp will not claim the CM's chair yet. It will take a decision after seeing the situation after the elections. He said that those who want to come from the opposition MVA alliance are welcome. Regarding the development works of Shinde government, the deputy cm said that the government will also provide houses to those people settled in Dharavi after 2011 who are not eligible. He said that the country's largest Central Green Park will be built on some land of the race course which will be in 300 acres. A 375 km metro network is being built in the Mumbai-MMR region.
