Both BJP-Shinde bloc, MVA claim win in Maharashtra rural polls

BJP on Tuesday claimed to have won the highest number of seats in the elections to 7,682 gram panchayats across the state. It also claimed that BJP-Balasahebanchi Shiv Sena alliance had got the maximum seats. However, MVA too made similar claims of having won the most seats. The gram panchayat elections are contested by individuals and not as members of political outfits, though many of the contestants are affiliated to parties.
