Reacting to PM Modi's statement after Mahayuti's win in the Maharashtra Election 2024 , Congress leader Udit Raj said, "PM Narendra Modi said that they have won because people unitedly voted for them after his 'ek hain toh safe hain' slogan. If this is the case, why didn't they win Jharkhand? If they had won in Savarkar's name, it would have happened long ago.

" He further expressed scepticism over the results of the Maharashtra assembly polls, calling them 'suspicious.' "They are just trying to cover up. Something suspicious has happened during the Maharashtra elections.

We have doubts about the EVM," he added. Notably, the BJP has won 132 seats, Shiv Sena, led by Chief Minister Eknath Shinde, has won 57 seats, and the NCP, led by Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar, won 41 seats. The state has 288 assembly seats.

The constituents of Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) suffered a rude jolt with Shiv Sena (UBT) led by Uddhav Thackeray winning 20 seats, Congress 16, and NCP (SCP) led by Sharad Pawar only 10 seats. The BJP saw a fabulous strike rate with the party winning 133 of the 148 seats it contested in Maharashtra. The party's allies Shiv Sena and NCP also have a very good strike rate.

The assembly elections in Maharashtra were held on November 20. In Jharkhand, the Jharkhand Mukti Morcha-led alliance is set to retain the power. The assembly polls were conducted in two phases in Jharkhand.

The first phase was held on November 13 and the second phase on November 20. Assembly Election Results Live Updates Maharashtra Poll Results Highlights 2024 Jharkhand Poll Results Highlights 2024 (You can now subscribe to our Economic Times WhatsApp channel ).
