The ruling Mahayuti alliance in Maharashtra has secured 68 unopposed wins across various municipal corporations ahead of voting in the upcoming civic polls. The BJP leads with 44 victories, followed by the Eknath Shinde-led Shiv Sena with 22, and Ajit Pawar's NCP with two. Key areas with significant unopposed wins include Kalyan-Dombivli, Pune, and Jalgaon. These early successes are seen as a morale booster for the alliance, allowing them to focus campaigning efforts elsewhere.
