Mahayuti Blames Each Other After MLC Poll Setback; BJP Suffers Jolt

Times of India · politics

The ruling Mahayuti coalition in Maharashtra has faced internal discord following its performance in the Legislative Council elections, securing only two out of five seats while the Maha Vikas Aghadi won three. A significant blow to the BJP occurred in Nagpur, where Congress's Abhijit Wanjarri retained his seat, defeating the BJP nominee on the Chief Minister's home turf. Both BJP and ally Shiv Sena have engaged in a blame game, accusing each other of failing to support alliance candidates.
