Last Updated: November 23, 2024, 14:52 IST
Maharashtra Mumbai Election Results 2024 LIVE Updates: The 36 assembly constituencies of Mumbai voted along with the rest of the 252 seats of Maharashtra in a single phase on November 20 and the counting of votes is underway today (November 23). The Election Commission officers across the state have made proper arrangements and tightened security near strong rooms and counting centres.
Mumbai is divided into 36 assembly constituencies, 10 in the island city and 26 in the suburban district. A total of 410 candidates are contesting this time; among them are 105 from the island city and 315 from the suburbs.
Maharashtra is witnessing a fight between two of the state’s main alliances, Mahayuti and Maha Vikas Aghadi, led by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and the Congress respectively. The Mahayuti alliance, in power, has major parties apart from the BJP, including Chief Minister Eknath Shinda-led Shiv Sena and the Nationalist Congress Party’s (NCP) Ajit Pawar faction. On the other hand is the MVA, which, apart from Congress, consists of Shiv Sena (UBT) and NCP (Sharad Pawar faction).
The final voter turnout of the state this time stood at 65.11%—also the highest in the last six elections at least. Even as Mumbai City (52.07%) and Mumbai Suburban (55.77%) recorded lower turnouts than the state average, most seats reported better voter participation than in 2019.
