CM Fadnavis hits back at Sharad Pawar over Maharashtra election remarks, calls for acceptance of results

India TV News  

In a fresh wave of political debate, Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis has responded sharply to Nationalist Congress Party chief Sharad Pawar's recent comments about the BJP-led Mahayuti coalition's victory in the assembly elections. The Chief Minister took to Twitter to counter Pawar’s claims and draw attention to what he sees as inconsistencies in the translation of votes into seats in previous elections. Fadnavis highlighted discrepancies in the 2019 Lok Sabha elections, where, despite the BJP securing 1,49,13,914 votes, it only won 9 seats. He further referenced how the Congress and NCP secured a low number of seats despite winning significant votes in the 2019 elections, stating that Congress received 87,92,237 votes but only managed to win one seat, while the NCP got 83,87,363 votes and secured four seats.
