Election Results Maharashtra: Maharashtra Congress president Nana Patole is among the chief ministerial contenders if the MVA wins the elections.
The Indian Congress (INC), which is contesting the Maharashtra Assembly elections 2024 as part of the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) alliance, has fielded candidates in 101 of the 288 constituencies. As per the MVA seat-sharing agreement, 101 seats were allotted to the Congress while Shiv Sena (UBT) and NCP (SP) contested in 95 and 86 seats, respectively.
In the 2019 Maharashtra elections, the Congress had contested on 147 seats, but won just 44, a success rate of 29.9%. It formed the government with undivided Shiv Sena and undivided NCP but was ousted in 2022 when both its allies saw their respective parties split down the middle, with Eknath Shinde’s Sena and Ajit Pawar’s NCP joining hands with the BJP.
In the run-up to the 2024 Maharashtra polls, the BJP launched a ‘Say No to Congress’ campaign, highlighting incidents like the 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks and the lynching of Palghar sadhus that took place during Congress regimes.
Key candidates fielded by the Congress this time include KC Padavi from Akkalkuwa (ST), Nanabhau Falgunrao Patole (also known as Nana Patole) from Sakoli, Dhiraj Vilasrao Deshmukh from Latur Rural, Amit Vilasrao Deshmukh from Latur City, and Prithviraj Chavan from Karad South.
