Emerging from a meeting with Maharashtra Congress leaders in Mumbai Wednesday afternoon, Shiv Sena chief Uddhav Thackeray said their discussions were “progressing in the right direction” and a final decision would be taken soon. Advertising“The discussions are in the right direction…will convey the decision to everyone at the right time,” the Sena chief said, as he came out of the meeting around 2:20 pm. This morning, he held his first round of discussions with state Congress leaders. On his way home, he said a Sena Chief Minister would soon take charge in the state. The three parties — Shiv Sena, Congress and NCP — had on Tuesday decided to hold discussions on a common minimum programme before staking claim to form the government.
