LIVE | Maharashtra Elections Exit Poll Result 2024: Litmus Test For Pawars, Thackerays

Maharashtra Exit Poll Results 2024 Live: Mahayuti or Maha Vikas Aghadi? Voters seal fate of candidates in EVM with all eyes on exit poll results.

Maharashtra Exit Polls 2024 Live Updates: With voting for the 288 assembly seats of Maharashtra ending today, the stage is set for exit polls that will be announced this evening after 6.30 pm. The Maharashtra elections witnessed a high-voltage campaign that not only revolved around religious lines but also included welfare schemes and promises of more financial aid from both alliances - Mahayuti and the Maha Vikas Aghadi. As per the data from the Election Commission of India, voter turnout in Maharashtra's Assembly elections was a low 32.18%. 

Mahayuti is the ruling alliance that includes Shiv Sena, NCP and BJP while the Maha Vikas Aghadi includes Shiv Sena-UBT, NCPSP and Congress alongside some regional parties.  The BJP is contesting 149 seats, Shiv Sena 81 seats, and the Ajit Pawar-led NCP has fielded candidates in 59 constituencies. In the opposition alliance, the Congress has fielded 101 candidates, Shiv Sena (UBT) 95, and the NCP (SP) 86.

This is the first Maharashtra assembly election for two major regional parties - Shiv Sena and the NCP as they went to the polls after a split. The election is a litmus test for Uddhav Thackeray and Sharad Pawar. While Thackeray faces a challenge from his former colleague Eknath Shinde, Sharad Pawar is locked in a fierce contest with his nephew Ajit Pawar. The two claimants of Shiv Sena's popular legacy have squared off against each other in over 50 seats. The nominees of the two Pawar factions are up against each other in nearly 37 constituencies.
