Maharashtra Election Results 2024 LIVE: NDA Secures Strong Lead with Fadnavis’ Winning Slogan
The much-anticipated Maharashtra Assembly Election results for 2024 are rolling in, and early trends indicate a decisive lead for the NDA. With the BJP-Shiv Sena alliance ahead in 220 seats, the coalition is set to secure a commanding position in the 288-seat assembly.
Fadnavis’ Winning Formula
Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis has once again brought his leadership and strategic vision to the fore. Campaigning under the impactful slogan “Ek Hai Toh Safe Hai” (Unity Ensures Safety), Fadnavis appealed to voters by emphasizing stability, unity, and governance. The slogan resonated deeply with the electorate, reflecting their desire for consistent progress in the state.
The Numbers So Far
As counting continues:
- NDA Alliance (BJP + Shiv Sena): Leading in 220 seats
- MVA (Congress, NCP, Uddhav-led Sena): Trailing significantly, with leads in 60 seats
- Others: Scattered leads in 8 seats
These results mark a significant shift in the political landscape of Maharashtra, with the NDA gaining ground across both urban and rural constituencies.
Key Constituencies to Watch
Several high-profile battles are still unfolding:
- Nagpur South-West: Fadnavis is poised for a comfortable victory in his home turf.
- Baramati: A hotbed of NCP influence, where Supriya Sule faces a tough fight.
- Mumbai Suburbs: BJP and Shiv Sena are sweeping traditionally strong areas of the MVA.
Why the NDA is Winning Big
Analysts attribute the NDA’s strong performance to:
- Unified Campaign Strategy: Fadnavis and Chief Minister Eknath Shinde presented a united front, quelling doubts about alliance stability.
- Development Agenda: The NDA highlighted infrastructure projects, job creation, and investments as key achievements.
- Weak Opposition Coordination: Internal conflicts within the MVA weakened their voter outreach efforts.
Celebrations Begin
Scenes of jubilation are emerging from NDA offices across Maharashtra. Party workers and supporters have started celebrating, with slogans of “Modi, Fadnavis, Shinde Zindabad” filling the air.
What’s Next?
While the final results are awaited, the trends suggest a smooth path for the NDA to form the government. The alliance’s focus will likely be on consolidating this mandate to drive forward its development agenda.
