Shinde attributed the success to resuming stalled initiatives under their governance, emphasizing the public’s recognition of these efforts. He expressed gratitude to voters, stating, “The overall development of Maharashtra was our priority, and this mandate strengthens our resolve to deliver further.”
Ajit Pawar also celebrated the results, acknowledging the collective efforts of Mahayuti workers and leaders. He noted that schemes such as Ladki Bahin, targeting women’s empowerment, played a pivotal role in shaping voter sentiment. “Our responsibility has grown with this mandate,” he said, emphasizing the alliance’s dedication to progressing Maharashtra.
Mahayuti’s victory spans all six divisions of Maharashtra, a clear indicator of the alliance’s widespread acceptance. The results also reflect strategic planning and strong governance as voters rewarded the Shinde-Fadnavis-Pawar-led coalition.
In a significant moment, SP leader Abu Azmi won the Mankhurd Shivaji Nagar seat, while NCP leader Nawab Malik lagged in fourth place. Mahayuti’s dominance signals a new chapter in Maharashtra politics, strengthening its grip on state affairs and marking a decisive shift in the political landscape.
