New Delhi: Riding on the Narendra Modi wave, BJP has crossed the century mark in the Assembly polls in Maharashtra, a feat last time achieved by Congress in 1990.

Making deep inroads into Congress and NCP bastions, BJP is set to get over 120 seats this time in the 288-member House, a development that could jolt the Shiv Sena, which was its 'elder brother' in the saffron alliance that collapsed before the polls. In the 1990 Assembly polls, Congress had secured as many as 141 seats. Since then, no national or regional party had come anywhere near the 100 mark.
