Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leaders on Friday met Maharashtra Governor C V Rao and demanded imposition of governor's rule in the state after the ruling Congress, NCP alliance parted ways on Thursday.

"After the split between years long Congress-NCP alliance, the Maharashtra government has become a minority government and constitutionally such a government should be dissolved and Governor's rule should be imposed in the state. That's why we have demanded immediate dissolution of the minority government and imposition of president rule in the state," said Maharashtra BJP leader Eknath Khadse after meeting Rao.

Khadse further said that the Governor has assured that he will soon be informing the President about the situation of Maharashtra and has also brought it into Chief Minister Prithviraj Chavan's notice, and further investigation will be carried out according to the laws.

Yesterday, the NCP broke its alliance with the Congress ahead of the upcoming Assembly elections in Maharashtra, blaming their erstwhile allies of not being on the same page as far as the allocation of seats in the state was concerned.
