A day after being summoned by the Governor on the formation of the ministry in Maharashtra, Chief Minister Ashok Chavan today exuded confidence that the new government will be formed within 48 hrs.

''We will form the new government within 48 hours as there is no infighting or differences and we will respect the views of the Governor,'' Mr Chavan, who held three meetings in Mantralaya here, told reporters.

Yesterday, Governor S C Jamir had summoned both Mr Chavan and his deputy Chhagan Bhujbal to ascertain their views about the government formation.

''The government is still existing and functioning and I am also holding the meetings and all the issues will be resolved by this evening or tomorrow,'' he informed.

The ministers concerned were present at the meeting. He said the purchase of cotton under Cotton Monopoly Scheme will commence from tomorrow. He also said nearly 15,000 cops, including 11,000 constables, will be recruited in the state soon.

''I have instructed the concerned department to prepare a proposal according to the manifesto of Congress-NCP to maintain the steady rates of essential commodities at fair price shops,'' he added.
