Devendra Fadnavis Says BJP Created History in Maharashtra Civic Elections
Vote counting is in progress for Maharashtra’s civic body elections, including the crucial BMC and Pune Municipal Corporation contests, after a polling day marked by tension and controversy. Elections were held across 29 municipal corporations, covering major urban centres like Mumbai, Pune, Nagpur, Nashik, Thane, Navi Mumbai, Baramati, Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar, Latur, and Kolhapur. Overall voter turnout ranged between 46% and 50%, with Mumbai recording around 50%. Key battles are being closely watched between the BJP-led Mahayuti alliance and the reunited Shiv Sena factions, with results expected to reflect urban voter sentiment. The polls faced incidents of violence, alleged bogus voting, cash distribution, EVM glitches, and concerns over removable indelible ink.
