Mumbai/IBNS: After the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) struggled to cross 100 seats in the Maharashtra assembly polls, Shiv Sena chief Uddhav Thackeray has said the next Chief Minister will be decided on the basis of a pre-determined formula.

Addressing a press conference here, Thackeray said, "The Maharashtra Chief Minister will be chosen as per the pre-determined formula. We will sit with the BJP for that."

The BJP's ally Shiv Sena, as per reports, might push for the 50-50 formula making its leader Aaditya Thackeray the Chief Minister for one half of the next five years.

Aaditya has won from Worli constituency.

According to the last update, the BJP (98) and Shiv Sena (56), are ahead in 156 seats while the Congress and the Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) together are leading in 110 seats.
