Pune Election Results 2024 Live Updates: In 6 months, Congress sees its vote share down by 6% and BJP by 1%; biggest winner is Ajit Pawar’s NCP

Between the Lok Sabha election held in April and the Maharashtra Assembly polls in November, the Congress party saw its vote share decrease by more than 6 per cent. The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) also saw a slight decline in its vote share with the NCP (Sharadchandra Pawar) managing to keep its vote share almost intact.

The biggest gain in terms of vote share was made by the Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) led by Ajit Pawar with an increase from 3.60 per cent in the Lok Sabha elections to 10.56 per cent in the Assembly polls.

The decline in Congress’s vote share and gain in the NCP (SP)’s vote share is perhaps the reason behind the spectacular win of the BJP-led Mahayuti in Maharashtra. In Lok Sabha elections, Congress managed to get the support from almost all caste and religious groups.

Pune Election Results 2024 Live Updates: Is Sharad Pawar winning?

With the Mahayuti heading for a landslide in Maharashtra, 83-year-old NCP(SP) Sharad Pawar, who saw his party win 8 of the 10 seats it contested barely five months ago, has failed to weave his magic as his party sits at the bottom of the list of the six major players in the state.

According to the latest EC trends, the NCP(SP) is leading only in 18 of the 87 seats it contested while rival Ajit Pawar is set to win double the number of seats.

The senior Pawar’s strategy to rope in disgruntled leaders ahead of the Assembly polls has not seemed to work so has his strategy of “targeting” leaders who jumped ship with Ajit during the 2023 rebellion.

The Pawar versus Pawar battle was triggered after Ajit walked out of the NCP to join the NDA.

Ajit, who was up against his nephew Yugendra, seems to have clawed his way back.

Pune Election Results 2024 Live Updates: What turned the tide in Vidharbha for Mahayuti?

Even as agricultural distress in terms of lower than Minimum Support Price (MSP) rates of cotton and soyabean continued unabated, the Mahayuti managed to sweep the Vidharbha area of Maharashtra. Senior Congress leaders like Vijay Waddetiwar and others were trailing as BJP was headed to capture the cotton belt once again.

Farm activist Vijay Jawandhiya, while speaking to The Indian Express said the results are a result of the resounding success of the Majhi Mukhya Mantri Ladki Behin Yogna which saw the state government give Rs 1,500/- into the bank accounts of the eligible women in the state. “Money after all is money- people saw the swiftness with which the money was deposited in the bank accounts. This was one of the main reasons why people decided to vote for Mahayuti just months after voting for MVA in the Loksabha elections,” he said.

Another reason which helped the Mahayuti was the manner in which rebellions was handled and differences ironed out in the party. Unlike this, the MVA often was a divided house in Vidharba and strong independents who dented the chances of the official candidates. For example in the Ramtek seat Rajendra Mulak the Congress candidate who stood as a rebel was in the second position after Ashish Jaiswal the Shiv Sena (Eknaath Sinde) candidate while the official MVA candidate Vishal Barbate was in the fourth place. Internal rebellion had harmed the MVA more than the Mahayuti.

Ground level disconnect among the top leadership and the failure to put up an united front had hurt the party. Jawandhiya said the party leaders had become complacent after the Loksabha victory and had not made concentrated efforts to ensure they keep up the narrative. “Soyabean prices were well below MSP since the past few months- the Congress did not take up the matter till late. Kapas (seed cotton) prices are blow MSP- but this did not figure till late in the narrative,” he said. At the end of the day Ladki Bahin won the narrative for the Mahayuti in all parts.

With the Mahayuti heading for a landslide victory in Maharashtra Saturday, BJP spokesperson Pravin Darekar said Devendra Fadnavis is likely to be the next chief minister of the state.

''This result has taken us by surprise. We knew we would win but never expected such an overwhelming result. I think Devendra Fadnavis is likely to be the chief minister,'' Darekar told reporters in Mumbai. 

The BJP was leading in 125 seats of the 288-member Maharashtra Assembly as votes were being counted. It won 105 seats in the 2019 Maharashtra Assembly elections.

Shiv Sena spokesperson Sheetal Mhtare said Mahayuti leaders will decide who will be the chief minister “We think Eknath Shinde should remain the chief minister,” she said.

Another BJP spokesperson Keshav Upadhaye said, “Elections results are coming in. The Mahayuti is clearly leading. This vote is for development. If BJP workers think so, Fadnavis should be the CM and there is nothing wrong with it... After all, Mahayuti leaders will take the decision”.

After the split in the Shiv Sena in 2022, the BJP made Eknath Shinde the chief minister and Fadnavis was relegated to the deputy chief minister's post.
