Maharashtra election results 2024: BJP leader and Deputy CM Devendra Fadnavis defeated Congress candidate Prafulla Gudadhe to win Nagpur South West seat.

Meanwhile, Fadnavis denied any row over the CM's post and asserted that leaders of Mahayuti will take a call even as counting of votes showed the saffron party-led coalition is heading for a landslide victory.

Addressing reporters, Fadnavis said the results of the Maharashtra assembly polls show that the state supports PM Narendra Modi and also thanked women voters.

"Opposition’s efforts of propagating a fake narrative, and polarisation of voters based on religion foiled by masses," said Fadnavis.

The Deputy CM said he succeeded in breaking the 'chakravyuh' of opposition due to the support of voters, the BJP team and party leaders.

The Maharashtra assembly election, held across 288 seats, featured a fierce contest between the ruling Mahayuti alliance, which includes the BJP, Shiv Sena (Shinde faction), and NCP (Ajit Pawar faction), and the opposition Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA), comprising Congress, Shiv Sena (UBT), and NCP (Sharad Pawar faction). Exit polls have forecasted a close race.

The elections were held under high stakes, following significant splits within Shiv Sena and NCP. In the 2019 assembly elections, the BJP won 105 seats, Shiv Sena secured 56, and Congress got 44 seats.
