Mumbai: A day after Narayan Rane quit the Maharashtra cabinet, efforts to persuade him to take back his resignation failed on Tuesday and the matter would now be referred to Congress president Sonia Gandhi for resolving it.
Mr Rane, who had a closed-door meeting with CM Prithviraj Chavan and state Congress chief Manikrao Thakre to sort out the issues that led to his stepping down, remained unpacified and insisted on acceptance of his resignation.
“The CM will seek an appointment with Sonia Gandhi. I, Mr Chavan and Manikrao Thakre will meet her to discuss issues I have raised,” Mr Rane said.
