Jayant Patil asked NCP (SP) MLAs to prepare for a possible alliance with the NDA.
Patil argued joining the BJP-led NDA is the best option for the party's survival.
The party leadership is holding internal meetings to gauge MLAs' views on the future course.
Only a handful of MLAs oppose an alliance with the BJP due to ideological concerns.
Backchannel talks with the BJP are ongoing, and a decision may follow their outcome.
