BJP's First List Of 99 Candidates Released: Eknath Shinde's 'Traditional' Seats At Risk?

The BJP has released its first list of 99 candidates for the Maharashtra assembly elections, highlighting five seats previously held by the Shiv Sena in 2019. Candidates include Anup Agarwal for Dhule, Rajesh Banke for Deoli, and Pravin Tayade for Achalpur. As allies push for more seats, tensions rise over allocations, with the Shinde-led Sena seeking 100-105 seats, while the BJP may offer 80-90. The elections are set for November 20, with results on November 23.
