In Maharashtra's upcoming civic polls, 68 candidates from the ruling Mahayuti alliance, including BJP, Shiv Sena, and NCP, have been elected unopposed. This occurred after a significant number of rival candidates withdrew nominations. Opposition parties allege coercion and misuse of power, while ruling parties attribute the wins to their strength and good governance. The State Election Commission is investigating these allegations and has requested reports from local officials to ensure no foul play.
