Maharashtra Assembly Election 2024: Political leaders speak out on seat-sharing

The political scene in Maharashtra is steaming up as parties are in the process of declaring their candidate list. Given the political arrangements of a coalition between the parties, the battle is intensifying as parties are battling it out to balance their own interests with those of the allies in the Maharashtra Assembly election 2024 . Maharashtra Congress chief Nana Patole on seat-sharing said, "We will declare the first list tomorrow...More than Maha Vikas Aghadi, there are differences in Mahayuti...The issues on 30-40 seats will be resolved”. Congress leader Nitin Raut said, "Such a situation has always built up with all the alliances that have been formed in the country till this day. It is important to understand that. Every party wants that they should get their rights.” Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Sanjay Raut said, "...We have been in politics for years, every party feels that their workers should be made candidates...But this is an alliance. Everyone has the right to speak about their role but when it comes to seat sharing, everyone has to make a few sacrifices and take a step back." On tussle over seat-sharing in Maha Vikas Aghadi, Eknath Shinde-led Shiv Sena leader Dr Raju Waghmare says, "There is a lot of fight between Congress and Shiv Sena (UBT). Shiv Sena (UBT) thinks they can win more seats and they are even ready to take the seats of alliance partners of Congress and NCP (SCP).

So Congress is adamant on its seats..."... [Read More]
