Maharashtra Election 2024 LIVE Updates: ‘Exit polls are fraud’: Sanjay Raut predicts MVA win with 160 seats


Maharashtra Election 2024 LIVE Updates: Soon after the polling for 288 Assembly seats concluded on November 20, exit polls predicted a Mahayuti return in Maharashtra.

A majority of exit polls have predicted a comeback for the Bharatiya Janata Party-led Mahayuti in Maharashtra elections 2024 with a clean sweep. The Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) lags behind, unlike its Lok Sabha 2024 peformance. 

The majority mark in Maharashtra assembly is 145. The actual results will be out on November 23, though. 

The contest in Maharashtra is largely bipolar. The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), in alliance with Ajit Pawar-led NCP and Eknath Shinde-led Shiv Sena under the ruling Mahayuti banner, is contesting against the opposition Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) alliance, comprising the Shiv Sena (UBT), the NCP (Sharad Pawar) and the Congress party.

Voting was held across 1,00,186 polling stations in 52,789 locations on Wednesday. The voting percentage was 65 per cent, highest since 1995.

The 2019 Assembly Elections

The 2019 assembly elections in Maharashtra saw 61.4 per cent voter turnout. The ruling National Democratic Alliance (NDA) of the BJP and the Shiv Sena (SHS) won a majority. The alliance was dissolved after differences over the government formation, precipitating a political crisis.

In the last five years, the state has had three different chief ministers. These include BJP’s Devendra Fadavis, Shiv Sena’s (UBT) Uddhav Thackeray, and the Shiv Sena’s (SHS) Eknath Shinde.

The two major regional parties – the Shiv Sena and the Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) – also saw splits, leading to alliances in power and in the opposition.

High Political Stakes

The political stakes have never been higher in Maharashtra. As key players vie for control in one of the richest states of India, the contest is more than just a battle for power. While it is a test of leadership legacies for many, it is also a battle for political survival for others.

The high-decibel campaign saw several prominent national leaders, including Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Home Minister Amit Shah, Congress leaders Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, and Union ministers, travelling across the state to rally support for the Mahayuti and MVA candidates.

In the 2024 Lok Sabha Elections, the BJP lost ground in Maharashtra. It won just nine of the 28 seats it contested in 2024, as against 23 of the 25 seats it contested in the 2019 general elections.

The results in Maharashtra will test the BJP’s momentum after the Haryana win. The election will also be another test for the INDIA bloc since major players in the opposition alliance are in the fray here.

The election tests the BJP’s ability to stay in power with the help of regional parties – the Shiv Sena and NCP factions, in this case. A victory in Maharashtra would certainly bolster the BJP’s reach beyond its traditional strongholds in the north.

You must have seen that exit polls predicted victory for the Congress in MP and Chhattisgarh, but BJP came to power there as well.
