Speaking at the event in Nagpur, Fadnavis asserted that around 75 per cent municipal corporation presidents have been elected from the Mahayuti alliance; meanwhile, the opposition Maha Vikas Aghadi has been able to win only 50 seats
"In yesterday's Maharashtra election results, the BJP is the number one party. The Mahayuti alliance has elected 75 per cent of the municipal council presidents. A total of 50 presidents were elected from the Maha Vikas Aghadi, while 210 presidents were elected from the Mahayuti. We have wiped out the Maha Vikas Aghadi. The BJP has the highest strike rate. Sixty-five per cent of the elected presidents are from our party," Fadnavis said
Furthermore, he mentioned that 3000 corporators have been elected from the Mahayuti alliance, including 48 per cent of them from the Bharatiya Janata Party, terming it as a record
Fadnavis stressed that people have once again shown their trust in the NDA government and in PM Modi's development agenda and trust-building efforts
Around 129 municipal council chairpersons have been elected from the BJP. Together, all three alliance parties (Shiv Sena, BJP, and NCP) account for 75 per cent of the city council chairpersons. In terms of corporators, more than 3,300 BJP candidates have been elected, according to Maharashtra CM Devendra Fadnavis
