Maharashtra Exit Poll 2024: BJP-led Mahayuti Likely To Retain Maha, Setback For MVA

The exit polls for Maharashtra Assembly Elections 2024 predict a comfortable majority for the BJP-led Mahayuti alliance, signaling another term in power. The Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) alliance, comprising the Uddhav Thackeray-led Shiv Sena, Congress, and NCP (Sharad Pawar faction), faces a significant setback as poll numbers suggest a loss of key constituencies. Mahayuti's stronghold across rural and urban Maharashtra appears to have been bolstered by grassroots campaigns and alliance strategies. Meanwhile, the MVA is grappling with questions about its approach and leadership challenges.
