Mumbai:  Upset over ‘paltry' allocation of seats for the October 15 Maharashtra Assembly polls, three small parties of the Shiv Sena-BJP led ‘Mahayuti' today said they have decided to quit the combine and accused the saffron constituents of “back-stabbing” them.

 “Shiv Sena and BJP have stabbed us in the back. SSP, RSP and Shivsangram have decided to leave ‘Mahayuti' (grand alliance) and contest the Assembly polls jointly,” SSP leader Sadabhau Khot said here.

“We will declare our joint list of candidates this evening,” Khot said.

He said they were brought into the grand alliance by late BJP leader Gopinath Munde, “we trusted him and came into ‘Mahayuti'. But our house is being burnt while trying to douse fire in their (Sena and BJP) houses.”

“By giving seven seats to four constituents (including RPI), they (Sena and BJP) have insulted us,” the farmers' leader from western Maharashtra said, adding we apologise to people of Maharashtra for our mistake in aligning with such parties.
