Ruling Alliance Predicted to Sweep Lok Sabha Polls in Maharashtra: Praful Patel


In a bold proclamation, Praful Patel, a prominent leader of the Nationalist Congress Party (Ajit Pawar faction), asserted on Saturday that the ruling 'Mahayuti' alliance is poised for a sweeping victory in the upcoming Lok Sabha elections in Maharashtra.


Addressing a party event in Gondia, Patel expressed confidence that the Mahayuti alliance, comprising the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), the Shiv Sena led by Eknath Shinde, and the NCP under the leadership of Ajit Pawar, would secure the majority of Lok Sabha seats in the state.


Patel attributed the anticipated success of the Mahayuti alliance to the unwavering faith of the people in Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership. He confidently stated that the opposition's INDIA bloc would face failure as they lacked a clear agenda, contrasting it with the strong leadership of PM Modi.


Highlighting the achievements under the Modi government, Patel cited the development of robust diplomatic relations with Islamic countries. He also noted the construction of one of the largest Hindu temples in Abu Dhabi as a testament to India's global standing.


"In the INDI Alliance, there are 25 partners who cannot reach a consensus on their logo. You cannot win elections simply by targeting PM Modi with no clear agenda of yours," Patel remarked, underscoring the need for a coherent strategy for electoral success.


Responding to queries about the ongoing Maratha reservation issue, Patel expressed optimism, stating that the matter appeared to be nearly resolved with activist Manoj Jarange calling off his hunger strike. Patel reiterated the NCP's longstanding support for Maratha reservation.


When asked about his potential candidacy for the Lok Sabha elections from the Bhandara-Gondia seat, Patel remained non-committal, stating that the decision would be made after discussions with alliance partners.
