Addressing a press conference at the state BJP headquarters on Monday, party chief spokesperson Keshav Upadhye said elections were held for 2,359 Gram Panchayats across the state.
Upadhye further added that UBT had constantly criticized the BJP as well as the NCP (Sharad Pawar faction), and these results were a lesson for all of them. “In the last ten years, in all elections held in the state, the BJP has always been number one. It is the party in the people’s mind and has always taken a development stance,” he said.
“The results pouring out are a clear indication that the people of the State are satisfied with the Mahayuti government,” he said.
