The spurt in electors in Maharashtra became a subject of controversy after the Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha, Rahul Gandhi, raised the issue at a recent press conference. In Maharashtra, between the Lok Sabha polls held on April 19, 2024, and the Assembly elections held on November 20, 2024 — a period of 215 days — there was a net addition of 39.6 lakh electors. However, between the Assembly elections on October 21, 2019, and the Lok Sabha polls in April 2024 — a period of 1,642 days — there was a net addition of only 32.2 lakh electors. “Why did the Election Commission add more voters in Maharashtra in five months than it did in five years,” Mr. Gandhi asked.

Raj Thackeray slams BJP over alliances, state poll results | Mumbai News

Published by Parlour News

Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) chief Raj Thackeray on Thursday attacked the BJP,  criticizing the party’s political alliances, its inconsistencies, and raising doubts over the results of the Maharashtra Assembly elections. Addressing a rally of the MNS in Mumbai on Thursday,  Thackeray pulled up the BJP for its contradictory stance on corruption, accusing the party of failing to act on its own allegations. “The BJP had promised to imprison those involved in corruption, but instead of taking action, they brought these very leaders into their cabinet,” said Thackeray, in an oblique reference to Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar. Pawar had faced corruption allegations in the water irrigation scam, but despite this, he joined the Eknath Shinde-led government in 2023 and became Deputy Chief Minister, said Thackeray. Story continues below this ad “The BJP levelled serious accusations against leaders such as Hemant Biswa Sharma, Radhakrishna Vikhe Patil, Ajit Pawar, Harshvardhan Patil, Narayan Rane, and Ashok Chavan. Yet, the party not only brought these leaders into their fold but made them ministers and even Deputy Chief Minister. Prime …

A day after NCP chief Ajit Pawar met his estranged uncle Sharad Pawar to wish him on his 84th birthday, Sunanda Pawar, the mother of NCP (SP) MLA Rohit Pawar, said Friday that the two factions should come together. In response, the NCP said the Sharad Pawar group is welcome to join hands with them provided they are ready to accept the leadership of Ajit Pawar. While speaking to reporters in Pune, Sunanda Pawar said, “Every year, we all meet Sharad Pawar… As a family, we should all come together”. “I can’t say whether Ajit Pawar and Sharad Pawar will come together. Every family has differences. In future, they can come together. I think they should come together. If we are united, it increases our strength, if we are divided, the strength is diminished. The two should decide who should go with whom,” she said. When asked whether the Senior Pawar should also join hands with the ruling parties, Sunanda Pawar said, “Sharad Pawar has been in politics for 60 years. What he should do …

Maharashtra Assembly elections 2024 | CSDS-Lokniti Survey: BJP builds a broad caste coalition, garnering Maratha and OBC votes

Maharashtra Assembly elections 2024 | CSDS-Lokniti Survey: BJP builds a broad caste coalition, garnering Maratha and OBC votes

Published by Parlour News

In the Lokniti survey, almost three of every 10 Marathas have indicated their preference for the BJP. File | Photo Credit: The Hindu For the past three decades, Maharashtra has seen continuous fragmentation of various caste groups, but notably the Maratha-Kunbi caste cluster. The idea of ‘vote bank’ is always employed in discussing the close connection between the Maratha community and the Congress. That vote bank was practically dissolved in the 1995 Assembly election. As the Congress in the State went on declining, its base among Other Backward Classes (OBCs) too became invisible. Since then, the BJP and the Shiv Sena together and separately kept trying to win a larger share of both the Maratha and the OBC vote. In 2014, the BJP emerged as a major player in State politics and began attracting both the Marathas and the OBCs. In the latest election, the process of coming together of the Marathas and OBCs as supporters of the BJP has gone one step further. In the Lokniti survey, almost three of every 10 Marathas (including the …
