Shiv Sena Ncp

The BJP-led Mahayuti alliance - consisting of Chief Minister Eknath Shinde's Shiv Sena and the NCP of Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar, in addition to the BJP - in Maharashtra has won six of 11 seats in MLC polls.

Resort politics has made a comeback in Maharashtra, as has the possibility of cross-voting and horsetrading, as the state gears up to hold elections for 11 Legislative Council seats on Friday.

West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee said she will meet Shiv Sena chief Uddhav Thackeray and NCP leader Sharad Pawar in Mumbai on Friday to discuss the present political situation in the country.

The Opposition alliance of Shiv Sena (UBT), Congress and NCP (Sharad Pawar faction) will reveal its Chief Minister choice in due course, but the ruling coalition led by the BJP must show the "face of failure" first, Uddhav Thackeray said today

Both Uddhav Thackeray and Sharad Pawar have clearly emerged as the winners in the legacy battles for their respective parties.

Shiv Sena faction leader Uddhav Thackeray, NCP faction boss Sharad Pawar, and the Congress' Prithivraj Chavan have thanked voters for the Lok Sabha election result that favoured their alliance over the BJP's NDA.

Three days after it stunned the BJP and the breakaway factions of the Shiv Sena and the NCP by emerging as the single largest party in Maharashtra in the just-concluded Lok Sabha elections, the Congress has set its sights on the next target.

Shiv Sena (Uddhav Balasaheb Thackeray) chief Uddhav Thackeray will not switch to the ruling BJP-led NDA, Maharashtra NCP (Sharadchandra Pawar) President Jayant Patil asserted on Thursday.

Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde has issued a legal notice to Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Sanjay Raut over a "defamatory" article which claimed that Mr Shinde tried to ensure the defeat of ally NCP's candidates in the ongoing Lok Sabha elections.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi today advised the NCP (SP) and Shiv Sena (UBT) to join hands with Ajit Pawar and Eknath Shinde after Lok Sabha poll results instead of "dying by merging" with the Congress.

Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) leader Chhagan Bhujbal today said he has withdrawn his candidature from the Nashik Lok Sabha seat. The development comes amid a tussle between the NCP and the Shiv Sena to contest from this seat.

The opposition Maha Vikas Aghadi alliance in Maharashtra has reached a deal for the state's 48 Lok Sabha seats - 10 days before the start of the election - senior bloc leaders said Tuesday morning

In Maharashtra's Baramati, a historic showdown awaits as the splintered National Congress Party (NCP) gears up for a unique 'Pawar vs Pawar' contest in Supriya Sule, daughter of the party's patriarch Sharad Pawar, going up against Sunetra Pawar.

With consensus eluding Maha Vikas Aghadi on an agreeable seat-sharing formula for Lok Sabha polls, NCP (SP) leader Sharad Pawar on Monday met Shiv Sena (UBT) chief Uddhav Thackeray at his residence in suburban Mumbai.

Though Eknath Shinde and Ajit Pawar have the support of a majority of MLAs, will loyal voters of their respective parties side with them?
