Mumbai Maharashtra Governor SC Jamir stepped in to inject a sense of urgency in government formation and NCP leader Chagan Bhujbal added a new twist saying his party would support a Congress government from outside.

But his party leader and Union Minister Praful Patel made it clear that his party will be part of the new government that will be formed "at the earliest".

Talks are on with Congress and issues will be sorted out "amicably and to the satisfaction of all", he said in New Delhi adding what he was saying is "official" stand of the party.

12 days after the results were out giving the Congress-NCP coalition a majority in the Assembly, the two parties are yet to sort out problems of portfolio distribution among them and give an indication as to when they would form the government.

As the term of the outgoing Assembly ended on Tuesday, the Governor called both Chief Minister Ashok Chavan and Deputy Chief Minister Bhujbal separately and discussed with them the government formation.

Bhujbal told reporters after the meeting with Governor that it was for the Chief Minister to answer to why a government was not being formed.

How to form a stable government in Maharashtra. by P.N. Sarin on 03 Nov 2009

The Governor should ask the newly elected members to choose the leader of the House by giving first, second and third preference. The member who secures more than 50 per cent votes should be asked to form the government. If we can choose the President of India by this method, why not the Chief Minister?

In this years assembly election the nation witnessed large scale violence ever before. The law and order is big problem. The government functioning in a very shabby manner. Every party is claiming to be protecting marathi manoos this type of politics is seen first time in the state. By this way all these political party definately tarnishing the image of marathi manoos. In the name of language peopole are abusing each other. Do we thing we can bring unity to the nation by preaching such linguistic hatredness. The central government should clearly declare that Hindi be the national language and there is no compromise in this matter. Even now a days southern states does not vehemently oppose to hindi. But the state in which the language similar to hindi is being oppossed severally. The people from south now a days realised that if they do not learn hindi they cannot be linked to the nation as well as internationally.

Threat by HPJ on 03 Nov 2009

What is this support from outside?Either join or leave it.The Governor should recommend President's Rule to the maximum possible tenure. At the time of end of last tenure of Presidet's Rule let there be fresh elections.Even after 13 days if the Govt,is not formed, it seems politicians are not serious about democratic path.All public interest work are held up in Mahrashtra.Both Congress and NCP are responsible for this.
