Maharashtra's Mahayuti Alliance Sets Its Sights on 51% Vote Share in Upcoming Local Elections

Maharashtra Revenue Minister Chandrashekhar Bawankule, representing the BJP, announced the Mahayuti alliance aims for a 51% vote share in the forthcoming local elections. Unfazed by MNS leader Raj Thackeray's preparations and speculation about a Shiv Sena coalition, Bawankule assured readiness and public support for development-focused governance.

Maharashtra's Mahayuti alliance, led by the BJP, is determined to secure a 51% vote share in the upcoming local body elections, according to Revenue Minister Chandrashekhar Bawankule.

Despite Raj Thackeray's efforts to prepare the MNS and potential allies like the Shiv Sena (UBT) for the polls, Bawankule exuded confidence in the BJP's current standing, bolstered by past electoral performances and ongoing development initiatives under Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis.

The ruling ensemble, comprising the BJP, Shiv Sena, and NCP, is not deterred by speculation of alliances forming between Thackeray and other factions, asserting their collective readiness to face any electoral challenge.
