BJP Joins Hands With Congress In Ambernath, Sparks Political Shock In Maharashtra
In a surprising political realignment in Maharashtra, the Bharatiya Janata Party has formed an alliance with the Indian National Congress to secure power in the Ambernath Nagar Palika, sidelining the Shiv Sena faction led by Eknath Shinde. The unexpected tie-up comes even as the BJP has also entered into a local alliance with the AIMIM in another municipal body, triggering sharp reactions and accusations of political double standards. While leaders describe the moves as tactical and limited to civic bodies, the alliances have reignited debate over ideology, convenience, and coalition politics ahead of crucial elections in the state.
