BJP and NCP Likely to Form Raigad Zilla Parishad Body, Shiv Sena May Sit in Opposition

In the Raigad Zilla Parishad elections, Shiv Sena emerged as the single largest party with 21 of 59 seats but fell short of a majority. The Nationalist Congress Party (16 seats) and Bharatiya Janata Party (15 seats), both Mahayuti allies, are likely to form the governing body together, potentially assigning the president's post to BJP and deputy president's to NCP. Shiv Sena may sit in opposition, with its leaders awaiting senior leadership guidance amid ongoing discussions among alliance partners.
