Maha victory: On the Mahayuti and the Maharashtra election result

The Hindu  

The alliance of the BJP, the NCP Ajit Pawar faction and Chief Minister Eknath Shinde’s Shiv Sena faction — the Mahayuti — has scored a comprehensive victory in the Maharashtra Assembly election. While the Mahayuti increased its vote share across all regions, the Maha Vikas Aghadi — an alliance of the Congress, the Shiv Sena Uddhav Thackeray faction and Sharad Pawar’s NCP — saw its support decline across the State. The victory in Maharashtra will reinforce the authority of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah in the BJP, notwithstanding the party’s loss in Jharkhand. Maharashtra’s provincial politics has yielded to the BJP’s overarching Hindutva platform, which also has a strand of Maratha language pride and a regional iconography, for instance, in the invocation of Shivaji and V.D.
