Miscalculated combined power: BJP on MVA win

December 04, 2020 14:36

"The results of Maharashtra Legislative Council polls are not as per our expectations. We were expecting more seats but won only one. We miscalculated the combined power of the three parties (Maha Vikas Aghadi)," Devendra Fadnavis, BJP leader and former Maharashtra CM, reacts to the MVA's wins.

Of the six seats of the Maharashtra Legislative Council where polling was held earlier this week, the BJP has won only one. The ruling Shiv Sena-NCP-Congress coalition has won four seats and an independent member has taken the remaining seat.

The Shiv Sena did not win a single seat even though its alliance partners bagged four. The Sena's lone candidate lost in Amravati.

The BJP only won by-polls to the Dhule-Nandurbar local body seat, the results for which were declared earlier.
