Maharashtra government in 2-3 days: Fazal

Maharashtra [ Images ] will get a government in the next two-three days, Governor Mohammed Fazal said on Tuesday.

He said he might not seek a letter of support from the Congress-Nationalist Congress Party coalition to establish on paper its majority in the 288-member assembly.

"Perhaps I will not ask letter of support from Congress-NCP, as no other party has staked claim to form the government," he said at Raj Bhavan in Mumbai [ Images ].

The alliance has 141 seats in the assembly and is short of four to have a simple majority.

The NCP claims to have the support of 11 of the 19 independents.
