Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Sanjay Raut said there will be ‘some corrections’ to 1st list of candidates declared Wednesday. Against CM Eknath Shinde, party has fielded mentor Anand Dighe’s nephew.
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.
Maharashta CM Shinde addressed rally at Azad Maidan, while Uddhav and Aaditya Thackeray made final Dussehra speech before assembly polls from Mumbai’s Shivaji Park.
Former chief minister Uddhav Thackeray told the media Wednesday that the MVA will discuss who will be its CM face but those in ruling Mahayuti are not deserving of top job.
Swami Avimukteshwaranand Saraswati says Uddhav Thackeray was 'deceived' and that pain of those affected by this betrayal will not ease until Shiv Sena (UBT) chief becomes CM again.
The govt Friday announced that 25 June will be remembered annually as ‘Constitution Murder Day’ in remembrance of Emergency declared by Indira Gandhi govt in 1975.
In surprise move, Shiv Sena (UBT) fields Thackeray’s close aide Milind Narvekar. MVA has 3 candidates in the fray, but only enough numbers to win 2 seats. 11 seats go to polls on 12 July.
This comes weeks after oppn alliance registered big wins in LS polls and when assembly elections are months away. Another litmus test on 12 July as 11 more MLC seats go to polls.

The industry forecasts exports are set to grow 16% in 2025-26, boosted by surplus domestic production and a drive to push into 26 underserved global markets with strong potential.
Indigenisation level will progressively increase up to 60 percent with key sub-assemblies, electronics and mechanical parts being manufactured locally.
It is a brilliant, reasonably priced, and mostly homemade aircraft with a stellar safety record; only two crashes in 24 years since its first flight. But its crash is a moment of introspection.
