Bhubaneswar: History was made on Saturday. The ruling alliance Mahayuti secured a landslide win at the hustings, just after a bad loss in this year’s Lok Sabha elections in April -May 2024. The Mahayuti has presented the biggest turnaround plan for all – from businesses to political parties.

WHY HISTORIC WIN?

A glance at the assembly elections held after the formation of the State of Maharashtra in 1960 reveals big. The first assembly elections to independent State of Maharashtra was held in 1962. In the 1962 elections, Congress had won 215 seats. Noteworthy here, is Congress was the ruling party in 1957 in the Bombay State Legislative Assembly that comprises of the present day Gujarat and Maharashtra.

In the 1967 assembly elections, the tally of Congress dropped to 203. No single party or alliance in independent Maharashtra has touched the magic figure of 220 plus. The list of seats won by winning parties, even in the wake of Emergency wave, Indira Gandhi Assassination or  Mumbai blast aftermath, is given below.
