Shiv Sena to vote against govt

Shiv Sena, with its 12 MPs, has decided to stay with the saffron camp and not to support the Manmohan Singh government if a trust vote was sought in Parliament.

MUMBAI: Putting to rest any faint hope for the Congress-led UPA, Shiv Sena, with its 12 MPs, has decided to stay with the saffron camp and not to support the Manmohan Singh government if a trust vote was sought in Parliament.

���Shiv Sena has already made it clear that it was firmly with the NDA and will not support the Congress at any cost,��� Rajya Sabha MP and spokesman Sanjay Raut told mediapersons in Mumbai. When asked about the editorial in party mouthpiece Saamana on the Indo-US civilian nuclear deal about a fortnight ago, he said the editorial was critical of the Left parties holding the country to ransom and creating political instability over the nuclear deal. ���It did not mean that the Shiv Sena will support the Congress in the House,��� he added.
