Accordingly a fractured mandate, political logjam, emergency meeting for President's Rule and a foreign tour imposition of President's Rule in maharashtra by the narendra modi government has uncanny similarities with a similar move in bihar in 2005 and the decision had been taken by the Congress-led UPA government under manmohan Singh.
Perhaps maharashtra governor Bhagat Singh Koshiyari had invited Sharad Pawar's ncp to express its willingness and possibility of forming a government in the state and the invitation to the ncp was extended after Koshiyari refused to grant three days to the shiv sena to ramp up support from the ncp and the congress the two parties it was in talks for arriving at a power sharing formula after breaking away from the BJP.
Meanwhile the shiv sena got 24 hours to submit letters of support showing majority in maharashtra assembly, the ncp did not get the same amount of time to do it. Perhaps the three parties the shiv sena, the ncp and the congress were in the middle of a power sharing talk, when news broke that governor Koshiyari had recommended President's Rule in maharashtra and prime minister narendra modi has called a meeting of the Union cabinet to decide on the Koshiyari's recommendation.
