The defeat in Haryana has weakened the party’s position in seat-sharing talks with allies in poll-bound Maharashtra & Jharkhand, where the INDIA bloc is unable to reach a consensus.
The allies have reached consensus on 260 of 288 seats, it is learnt, but now all 3 primary parties are vying for remaining seats, with even smaller allies demanding larger share.
A host of contenders including sitting & ex-CMs, difficult dynamics in Mahayuti & emboldened Congress pushing for pre-eminence in MVA post-LS polls all complicate issue of CM faces.
Police say Akshay Shinde was being taken to Badlapur from Taloja jail when he allegedly snatched service weapon, opened fire and died in resultant retaliatory firing.

SEBI probe concluded that purported loans and fund transfers were paid back in full and did not amount to deceptive market practices or unreported related party transactions.
