Mumbai: As the counting of votes for the Maharashtra Assembly elections progresses, Shiv Sena (UBT) MP Sanjay Raut has raised serious allegations of irregularities in the results. Speaking to the media, Raut claimed, "There is something wrong with these election results. This is not the decision of the people."

Currently, the BJP-led alliance is leading in 215 seats, while the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) is ahead in 61 constituencies. According to Raut, several seats that should have gone to the MVA were allegedly "stolen."

He further alleged, "Money machines were set up in every constituency. Maharashtra’s people are honest, but the election process here has seen the highest level of dishonesty. We knew the sentiment of the public, but this outcome does not reflect it."

Raut also connected the developments to recent controversies involving Gautam Adani, claiming that the focus has been shifted to the election results to divert attention from issues affecting the BJP. He accused the BJP of manipulating the elections, stating, "Mumbai is going into the hands of Gautam Adani."
