MUMBAI: Shiv Sena on Monday reiterated its demand for an equal share of power in Maharashtra and asked the BJP to "speak the truth on the 50:50 power sharing formula" agreed between Amit Shah and Uddhav Thackeray.
The demand by Sena MP Sanjay Raut came shortly after chief minister Devendra Fadnavis and senior Shiv Sena leader Diwakar Raote met state governor Bhagat Singh Koshyari, amid the ongoing tussle between the ruling alliance partners over forming the next state government.

"You can tear a paper but you can't delete this record (of the power sharing formula agreement between BJP and Sena)," Raut said.
