Mahayuti Sweeps Maharashtra Civic Polls, Splits INDIA Bloc Ahead Of BMC Battle
After the BJP-led Mahayuti's landslide sweep in Maharashtra's municipal council and nagar panchayat polls, political tremors ripple far beyond the counting centres. Mahayuti didn't just win-it dominated, with BJP emerging as the single largest force in the local verdict.
As expected, rather than introspection, the opposition launches a blame game. Congress and Shiv Sena (UBT) cry foul, questioning EVMs and the Election Commission, even as the defeat's scale raises tough questions within their ranks.
Cracks widen further with high-stakes Mumbai civic polls looming: Congress announces it will contest solo, rattling INDIA bloc allies. UBT mocks them as a "tourist party," advising alliance and noting its own tie-up with Raj Thackeray's MNS-yet Congress remains firm.
