Fadnavis's leadership

Devendra Fadnavis’s political journey from a young corporator to the state’s deputy CM was crucial to the BJP’s success. Fadnavis’s leadership helped the BJP expand its influence.

'Ek hain toh safe hain'

Deputy chief minister Devendra Fadnavis on Saturday reiterated Prime Minister Narendra Modi's 'If we are one, we are safe' rhetoric in his first reaction after mahayuti's sweeping victory in Maharashtra assembly election. In a post on X, Fadnavis said, "Ek hain to safe hain. Modi hai to mumkin hai."

'Ladki Be​hna Yojna'

The Mahayuti alliance has credited a significant portion of their success to the strong backing from women voters. The BJP's welfare schemes targeted at women, such as the Ladki Behna Yojana, have played an important role in strengthening the party's appeal across different voter segments.

BJP allies left with little power

The saffron party, having achieved its best-ever performance in the state, is now in a dominant position to call the shots. With 125 seats secured, the BJP is just 20 MLAs away from reaching the majority. This leaves both Eknath Shinde's Shiv Sena and Ajit Pawar's NCP without any bargaining leverage they may have anticipated before the elections. (PTI)
